It's a cruel thing to say, truthfully, and maybe forty years ago, she might have cringed away from hearing such an unforgiving thing from such a pretty young girl who should have the world at her feet. But she's met Daryl. Knows how he behaves just the same. That sharp merciless tone of what they world might do to them.
