| Loss of friend as painful as divorce | 被密友抛弃堪比离婚 |
| Research suggests that many women find being dumped by a girlfriend more devastating than a divorce, the Daily Mail reports. Women tend to share everything with their closest female friends: hopes, secrets and insecurities -- things they would never dream of discussing with husbands or partners. So that friend is suddenly gone, it hurts. Women also tend to see their friendships as a measure of their worth, so when a relationship with a close friend ends, not only will women feel the pain of rejection but are also likely to feel a failure for not being able to maintain that friendship. | 研究显示，许多女性被闺中密友甩了后，会觉得比离婚还要痛苦。英国《每日邮报》报道称，女性会把她们的愿望﹑秘密以及不安全感等所有的一切和密友分享，而决不会跟丈夫或男友吐露。所以，密友的忽然离去会让人很受伤。另外，女性常会将友谊看成自身价值的度量衡。和密友决裂之后，她们不仅会因被拒而伤心，还会因不能维系这段友谊而产生挫败感。 |
