There are many things in fiction that can mimic real life. For instance, if a character should or shouldn't do something or be with someone/something. Is it good for said character to expand their experiences and enrich their lives with new people (or pets) or should they be content, satisfied, with what they have?

However, unlike reading about a character, readers cannot cheer them on in real life. As much as we all would love to have a personal cheer leader or pep coach for every moment we were unsure or needed to be reminded of how good (or bad) something might be, we don't.We have to live life by trial and error.

It makes life scary and unstable, dark and harrowing. Although, it makes for good material when you write anything, including fiction.
