I have an incredibly perfectionist friend. She basically only gets A's and cries when she gets a C. She doesn't want any attention; it really devastates her.
Because of this:
What could I say to her to make her feel better?

Loading...I have a question about a physics problem (topic: mechanical energy, subtopic: distinguishing between work and energy). With one step, the body rises and falls by about 5 cm. How many steps can you walk straight ahead with four Nutella rolls? I don't need a ready-made solution, but rather a tip on how to approach…
I had hip and knee operations two months ago. It was an 11 hour operation. It's been two months now, but I still can't walk, I can only walk with crutches. My mum and big sister always tell me that I don't do anything around the house. I do as much as I can. I…
Many people get in a really bad mood when they realize Monday is approaching. Why is that?
Hello! Since 7th grade, my math grades have only gone downhill (I'm in 9th grade now). Before that, I always understood math and got good grades. In 7th grade, however, we got a math teacher who couldn't explain things at all, and we had this teacher until 8th grade. During those two school years, my…
I'm currently learning Russian. In some words, the о is pronounced like an o, but sometimes also like an а. For example, "heating" in Russian is обогрев (obogrev), but it's more commonly pronounced abagrev. How do I know when to pronounce something?
I don’t know if it was the most pedagogical, but I would try it like that:
“Look, you wrote a three, but that doesn’t mean you can’t get anything else. Einstein had, for example, had a 5 on the certificate in Mathe. Don’t throw your life away.”
I suspect that most likely the pressure is built up by the parents. It will happen like a bad person if it does not meet the expectations of parents. This can also have happened indirectly by telling her that good grades are the most important in life. Then it would be a claim to itself, but induced by parents.
She’ll be very young. Preparatory. Mom and dad are still very important. Possibly, they have made their love for your girlfriend based on their achievements (Lob / Deception without giving special value to other qualities). She feels like her services are her identity.
You can cry for a three.
That means it is important to show their other perspectives. Trösten. Relative. Look at “Black Swan” with her once.
It wasn’t with Einstein. The 5 already. He went to school in Switzerland, where it was the best note. This is a well-known misunderstanding.
I can agree with the rest.
Too bad, but in principle you can call almost every x-perfect other successful people as an alternative.
Richard Branson “satisfies” under Legasthenie and other learning weaknesses, but became extremely rich from his own drive (approximately $5 billion)
The least will have had only ones throughout.

Does that help? It’s not a matter of principle. She can still be so rich and successful, she wants to be able to look the parents in her eyes, and that can only be her feeling that she is happy with her.
It’s not a world failure. Who else is really good may also have a ne 3.
But I wouldn’t be so much comforting that could only convey the feeling that it’s bad and comfort is appropriate.
You don’t have to do anything to be worth.
