“I hope you have a terrible life”: Man sobs uncontrollably in airplane after being refused to change seats, female flight attendant sees past his fake tears and puts him in his place

Welcome ladies and gentlemen. I remember being younger and loving a long airplane ride. The ambience, the feeling of being in the sky, the hovering silence, and most of all the lack of pressure to do anything. Your only job is to sit, and try to get as comfortable as possible. There's something sort of cozy and comforting about being in an airplane. Now that I'm older, I don't have the same rose-colored glasses about flying. The waiting for hours before your flight, waiting in line to get off the plane, being too close to other people for what's comfortable, and the boredom of not being able to do anything is less of a luxury sometimes.

Airplanes are uncomfortable, that's just the way it is. No one likes the middle seat, and people are divided about the window or aisle. I'm a window seat girl, myself. So is the protagonist in the story below, but that seems to be a problem for another flyer. Imagine a grown man sobbing in public, especially on an airplane where you can't even get away from him.

Instead of making a big scene and looking like a mental patient, why didn't this man just ask someone else to switch? There are plenty of window seats, why did he target this one? He seems mentally unstable and probably needs help.

This man needs to see a therapist…why would he even expect that a stranger would give up his seat? You can certainly ask someone if they'll switch with you, but they're not obligated at all to do it. You can't just start crying and think all your problems will go away.
