Like an abusive boyfriend

I am not uncoordinated or stupid, and I have a lot of patience for tough/challenging games, but this game just made me want to throw my DS against a brick wall. If you can go back to the very first level after playing 20 other levels and still get a Rank C (the worst rank), then maybe the game doesn't reward increased skill enough. It was just frustrating and pointless, and while I enjoyed some levels, I found other levels simply punishing.
I finally realized that games are supposed to be about being happy and that this game was making me unhappy. This game is like an abusive boyfriend -- you keep going back and it keeps hurting you. I finally put the game back in the envelope and am mailing it back. I sort of want to tear it open and try it again but I tried the level I was stuck on at least 25 times, and checked online to see what the trick is, and still can't beat it. I should just NOT PLAY IT ANYMORE. If I owned it I would probably drag it out once a week to try a level again and again, but since it's a rental I am moving on with my life. Breaking up with this game, as you will.
Those of you who can play it, I salute you. But I just don't want to be tortured anymore.
