Suppose you tell T of a painful incident. Let's say that the exact word for your feeling about the incident is disillusioned.

Here are two possible empathetic responses from T:

1. "You must feel so hurt."

2. "You must feel so disillusioned."

How (if at all) does your reaction differ between these two responses?
