Honestly, I think to a large degree people crave sympathy.
Its kind of addicting to be the center of attention and have others reassure us.
Of course, this isn't always the case. There are plenty of people who simply want relief from a tremendously hard time. But realistically, people are naturally self-centered to some degree. It just feels good to gain that level of attention sometimes.
