I once read about a word that is defined as the pain that an idealist feels when reality inevitably falls short of his or her own grand ideas of how things could be.
But I can't find it again. I thought my childhood friend had posted it on Facebook once, but I messaged him about it and he had no idea what I was talking about. Maybe it's one of those words that are in another language but have no accurate word for it in English. If anyone knows it, please let me know. I'd very much appreciate it.
