Long and slightly silly example due to use of silly movie:

Recently a friend started blanking me, completely out of the blue. I have no idea why. We haven't had a fight, I haven't been talking about him behind his back, nothing. He just leaves if I appear when he's with a group of friends we have in common. I couldn't help but make the comparison to Will and Robin Hood in Prince of Thieves. ("have I wronged you in another life? What is it that make you hate me so?") Does that mean I feel everything the characters felt, that I've experienced the same thing they have? Of course not. A fragment of that scene registered with me, and that connected it to the situation I was in. Is that wrong? If so why? And why is it wrong for the OP to do the same? We don't know the whole story.

I feel like I'm one of those dolls where you pull the string and I say one of a few random stock phrases:

[Homophobic] sexual assault is not comparable to someone telling you they love you and you not feeling the same way. I have no problem with someone comparing their situation with an apt comparison; in this case, with the information provided, they are not comparable at all.

Yeah, I'm not really sure why people are having so much difficulty understanding you, particularly since, as far I'm concerned, it's actually rather offensive to compare anything that's emotionally hurtful or uncomfortable to assault.

Yes. They are comparable. They are not the same thing, but you can compare them.
