the times I can recall someone accusing me of "choosing to be unhappy" it seemed like it was out of their frustrations that I had problems they couldn't solve. It would often be accompanied by a desire on my part that they acknowledge that I was facing hard choices.

the subtext I sometimes hear is that I'm supposed to settle for what I have and be content with my lot, rather than agitating for someone else to check their privilege.
