    I was sad today about those two dallit girls and the 2 Sialkot boys they were murdered and today was my boyfriend's birthday . Does that make me a bad person? Focusing on someone's death and not focusing on my bf? I was sad for myself too thinking l'll never be a nurse bc access has nothing .

    Well personally, I don't think this makes you "bad". People were killed and you have a right to your emotions. You shouldn't be upset about feeling sad on your boyfriends birthday. If you love each other, he'll understand. ^w^

    Coming from someone whose emotions rule their life, it is perfectly acceptable for you to be upset about that. I mean, yeah, it was supposed to be a happy day, but murder, even if its not someone you directly know, can send anyone's day for a loop. Just know that you don't have to feel bad for it. Your boyfriend should understand. :]

    It doesn't make you a bad person at all. I think it shows that you're considerate and empathetic. And I'm sure your boyfriend would understand why you felt that way. Don't worry so much about it.

    No, you're not a bad person. It's good you have compassion for complete strangers. Also, there's no reason you can't do something special for your boyfriend when it's not his birthday. The timing was just not right.
