Schadenfreude = feeling pleasure at someone else's misfortune

This is what a stud feels when some poor wimpy guy can't get a date online.

 

Freudenschade = feeling resentful at someone else's accomplishment or happiness

This OTOH is what a stud feels when the wimpy guy goes to a meetup and gets the date the stud could never get.

 

And this, fellow LSers, is why meetups rule and OLD sucks. :cool:

In the words of John Paul Jones, I have not yet begun to fight. :D

So you go through male profiles on dating sites pounding your fist on your desk at how much you hate them?
