Unfortunately, those scenario indeed is happening in real life. We take actions, efforts but sometimes those were not enough and doesnt satisfy other person. We showed empathy to those who has less output than the input but the significant result should be felt as satisfaction and fair.
Sometimes, life is so harsh but being wise, being not that emotional will probably help us to improve our self in terms of acceptance of situation and life's positive approach.
This is by far the norm, as I explained before this is even true in physics, a lot of energy is wasted all the time, even your body is not exempt from this, every day your body wastes a great deal of energy that you consume and only uses a portion of it, so it is natural that if we want to get a certain result we need to put a lot more effort than what it may seem necessary at first, and when we add that you are not playing on your own and that other people want the same thing then this increases the costs as well.
