"We suffer more often in imagination than in reality. We must learn to control and focus the force of our imagination on the good, bright side so it is positive and constructive helping ourselves and others, rather than let its force focus on the bad, dark side so it is negative and destructive hurting ourselves and others!" —Seneca

Most pre-suffering is done by females who then share this with their mates. If men had the same level of pre-suffering, they would never go try to kill a wooly mammoth with a stick.
