King Resilience remarked, “Never date out of pity. Pity isn’t love, and those who complain about rejection often fail to appreciate the person who finally gives them a chance. She built a castle on quicksand.”

Frank questioned, “How can pity ever be a basis for dating?”
Eliza Agela wondered, “Where will this lead? To another pity‑driven tale? Hopefully she has learned her lesson.”
