It doesn't really help to comfort a broken hearted teenager by saying, "don't worry, you'll find love again! Just look at me and my beautiful wife!"

- nkohari 13y agoExcept that, in your analogy, my wife is now married to someone else.
- dvanduzer 13y agoThe point of the analogy is merely this: You are telling someone going through a potentially awful experience that you were in an entirely different situation where the outcome for you was far far better. So if you really want to stick with the analogy, it's like an amicably-divorced-and-remarried man telling a widower to just cheer up.
