Comforting Friends?

Almost no matter what the problem really is, seeing a good friend or just someone you love somehow crying is the worst and most crushing thing to see. You only know you'll see to it that you may help them in some way. Either it is "taking care of" that person that seemed to destroy that happiness or you only comfort them, which is a lot better than nothing. You can at least hold them and see if you can do anything else for them, If it's the only thing you can do then do it the best you can. It may be the one thing to cheer them up completely and that can make your day. Start with a hug in any case and go from there. If they want to talk about it, they can start, don't rush them into something they definitely don't want. If they'd rather not talk about it then that is Okay. It is them that you're trying to comfort, not yourself. Keep their happiness in mind.
