Right And Wrong

A person can be wrong on facts. 

A person can't be wrong about feelings. 

Meaning, if a person feels a certain way then it is legitimate. It is not necessarily the healthiest way to feel and they can work on regulating their emotions better but their feelings are not *wrong*. 

It is VERY demoralizing to have one's feelings invalidated and people do it all the times in various subtle and not so subtle ways. So if you hear "you are wrong to feel that way" then run. 

On the positive side - how AMAZING it is to have your feelings validated.
