not OP but this is like....really? you'll never understand? you've never had moments of sorrow and jealousy and exhaustion? must be great to be you

I have some friends who've got their shit together and done amazing things and yeah, I'm fucking sad and bitter about it sometimes, because I spent all of my twenties being crushed under untreated depression and then, once I got medicated for depression, multiple bouts of severe pneumonia. I've wasted a third of my life, and yeah, if I want that to change it is up to me, but that doesn't mean I have no right to mourn or feel weird about inevitable comparisons. I'd never say this to those friends, and sometimes when those feelings boil up I need to step away from interacting with them, pet my cat, cook something nice for myself, and regain perspective. But submitting a fandomsecret is a perfectly reasonable/healthy outlet for that feeling, and it isn't wildly narcissistic or inappropriate or absurd to HAVE such feelings.

Jeez, have a little compassion yourself, you know?

also to everyone asking it seems pretty obvious to me that the two halves are connected thematically by the Mandalorian being kind of a superloner who still ends up with family and stuff? I haven't even seen it but it fits

The Mandalorian's a bitter bitch who can't figure out that their bitter bitchiness might be why they're all alone? Damn, that's a read on the series I hadn't seen before.

Yeah you just sound like OP here. No, I haven't been unfairly jealous of people who are able to have better lives than mine. It's really not that hard not to be an asshole. Being bitter about someone else's achievements is literal the stupidest things ever. The only thing you can change/affect in your life is your own deeds and actions. Not even surprisingly this very mindset (matched with a number of traumas in between) has lead me into severe depression, to which I've isolated myself and cut off all/any friends/acquaintances, fun stuff for sure... What I am happy about is that people are able to live their lives, even if it happens to be around me, be it those I cut off, abandoned, or otherwise. Like I am a very shitty person, but I'm not about to get bitter or jealous because someone else lives a fine life while I'm here wondering if I'll need to sell myself in a club in order to get the rent and move on in life...
Nobody can fault another person's happiness or success without being a complete asshole. You can want what they have, yearn for it, but blaming them for it is a purely shitty things to do.

I will not have compassion for people who push their insecurities and anger as if it's someone else's fault. It is your own, and yours alone. Be happy for people who managed to make their lives well, even if yours seem only to end in failure. It is not their fault, and in no way should they be blamed. Grow up.

SA! *NOT THE AYRT,* but the anon that they responded to...

Just for clarification.
