Answer:

People have different tolerances to life situations, such as pain, trauma, and other things.

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a very good question, like seriously. Everyone is different, and so you've probably heard things like "they have a high pain tolerance" and things like that, which does apply not only to pain but also to life situations and how people cope with them. Some people are more resilient than others, while others might take things harshly and become emotionally or even physically scarred by past situations. Hope that helps :) (I'm going through a lot myself, so I understand this question completely)
