The outgoing ones may start posting depressing things on social media, while the quiet ones may stay indoors crying day in day out without reaching out to people. Before you try to comfort a girl who is feeling upset, try to find out what is bothering her, so youll know how to approach the situation. I understand you, my love, and I will help you get your cute smile back!. Saying, she was so proud of you, allows you to acknowledge the depth and source of the sadness your girlfriend is feeling without assuming to know too much. ~ Steve Maraboli. When youre sitting beside someone who is sad, you can hug them, give them sympathetic looks, or suggest going for a walk. If something that happened at work is upsetting her, she may feel like you wouldnt understand, because you dont know the particular dynamics of her workplace. You can nod and show her that you really care, but don't nod too eagerly or she'll think you're rushing her or faking it. When faced with tears, its natural to want to try to snap the person out of it with smiles and jokes, or by insisting that whatever theyre upset about is no big deal. But someone whos upset wants to take you on a tour of their melancholic landscape, pointing out the blue-tinged landmarks theyre seeing; it doesnt help to say, Nope, theres nothing out there! or Look, theres a dog riding a unicycle! Something may not feel like a big deal to you, but it does feel like a big deal to them. This image may not be used by other entities without the express written consent of wikiHow, Inc.
