I'm incredibly late in replying, but you sound like you spend most of your time on tumblr. If that's the case, you should really be more capable of understanding this sort of thing.



Something that people like you need to understand is that not everyone thinks the same way. Some are mentally stronger than others. The CMC have each other. They have friends, they have family. They are optimistic, and were raised to see the bright side of things.

Starlight Glimmer had nobody to speak of. There was only one person she was close to.



Let me give you a lesson in human psychology.



When I was 14 years old, I was home alone when the neighbor's dog broke into the backyard and began killing our animals. At the time, we were raising chickens for fresh eggs, and when I looked out the window, the large white beast was thrashing the birds around like ragdolls. The cats had scatterred, the other dogs were going berserk in their kennel. I, a young teenager, home alone, had to go out the front door to try and flag down a passing driver in the middle of the mountains. There were 5 houses on our street, including ours, and no other houses for 6 miles in any direction.

I stood across the street from my home, where safety was supposed to be, as the large white dog, blood covering its face, trotted straight toward me, with soulless, killer eyes peering into my soul and right out through me.



I can still watch graphic dog attack scenes in movies, but I go into a severe panic attack if I see a dog, any dog, running loose outside of a yard.



My mother, on the other hand, was actually attacked by a dog, around the same time. She was visiting a client for her music business, making preparations for a party, when the client's dog pulled free from his chain and ripped into her arm. She had to go to the hospital and receive several stitches.



She cannot watch graphic dog attack scenes in movies, but she has no problem at all interacting with large, unchained or loose dogs. In fact, the only dogs she has bias against are dogs talked about in news reports, not even the breed she was attacked by.





Both of us had traumatizing interactions with large dogs, but we both have different long-term reactions to it.



If you tell two children "There's a monster in the closet", one will hide under the covers once you turn out the light, while the other will badmouth the supposed monster in an effort to be tough.





Also take into account mental stability. Clearly, the CMC are very mentally sound. Starlight Glimmer likely isn't, as she has very obvious and beyond distructive abandonment issues. Each person's brain works differently. This is common sense, one would think. I really shouldn't have to tell you this.



I had a girlfriend some years ago, at around 16 years old, who I had eventually dumped after getting tired of her attempting to make our relationship polyamorous when I wasn't comfortable with it. Any normal 18 year old girl would have accepted this, probably apologized, but eventually moved on. Not Jasmine. Instead, she told me that her boyfriend that I had dumped her over was abusing her, and reading her emails, yet she was continuing to email apologies to me, begging me to take her back. Then, after a year of not hearing from her, she sent me a text saying "I need you. I had a miscarriage yesterday. I found out I was a day pregnant three days before. I love you, please call me."

I've confirmed with my mother (who has had two children of her own) that this is not possible. None of that would have been noticeable. The pregnancy would have gone unnoticed.



Starlight Glimmer is just like Jasmine. She lost something, and went crazy.



As for the comment about me being a troll, you obviously have no idea what a troll is.
