One part of me said:
Don’t show that you’re hurt. You’re a man and you have to laugh it off, quick!
And the other part said:
Why are we bothering lying? Yes we were hurt by that comment, it was nasty and we’re human beings, it’s ok to be hurt by such a comment. So feck that don’t the strain of add acting into the already boiling over pot of hurt.
The second part makes a good argument.
