生错了人家

字幕原文

She was one of those pretty, 她是那种长得漂亮、

charming young women who are sometimes born, 又很有魅力的年轻姑娘，

as if by a mistake of fate, into a family of clerks. 可像是命运弄人一样，偏偏生在了一个小职员家里。

She had no dowry, no prospects, 她没有嫁妆，也没有什么好前途，

no way of being noticed or loved by a rich and distinguished man. 根本没机会被什么有钱有势的男人看上或爱上。

So she let herself be married to a minor clerk at the Ministry of Education. 于是，她就无可奈何地嫁给了教育部的一个小职员。

Her name was Mathilde Loisel. 她的名字叫玛蒂尔德·卢瓦泽尔。

She dressed plainly, because she couldn't afford anything else, 她平时穿戴很朴素，因为好衣服她根本买不起，

but she was as unhappy as if she had fallen from a great height. 可她心里却痛苦得要命，就像是从高枝上跌落下来一样。

She felt she had been born for every luxury. 她总觉得自己天生就该享受所有的荣华富贵。

The shabby walls of her apartment, the worn chairs, 家里破旧的墙壁、磨损的椅子、

the ugly curtains, all of it tormented her. 难看的窗帘，这一切都让她心里难受极了。

Another woman of her class wouldn't even have noticed. 要是换成跟她同出身的别的女人，可能压根都不会在意。

Unhappiness often comes less from what we lack than from what we keep comparing ourselves to. 人的不快乐，往往不是因为缺了什么，而是因为总忍不住去攀比。

And every day, it tormented her a little more. 而每一天过去，这种折磨就又加深了一分。
