What's the right thing to do at the time?

If you’re with a friend and they start crying…what do you do?

If you’re the one who starts crying, what do you expect them to do?

give them a tissue, give them a hug, start giving tassalis, or just sit there and let them cry it out?

Keep in mind in both scenarios the person crying is going through a tough time, and is a close friend and has never cried in front of you and this is a rare occurrence…

I will try to make them laugh,

And if Im crying I will expect the same.

if one of them is a male, he should offer to marry her … mushkil Hal…donoN kaa kaam ban gayaa :slight_smile: :cb:

Make them laugh. Then get a glass of water, and tell them to drink it.

Give them a hug as they cry it out and listen to them as they vent or share what they’re upset about. After that< try to give them the reassurance that is honest and fair - I’m not a fan of jhooti tassalis.

:hugz:

I will say please calm down :hug: I can do any thing for you :hug: but remember i don’t have enough money :barbie:

Re: What’s the right thing to do at the time?

I will first let her cry till she regains senses
then i will offer her with a tissue
and then some suggestions to overcome the problem
and in the end a Hug that i will always be there for her :hug:

Listen to them and console them. Obviously crying in front of someone, if you are not habitual of it, means a person is on the verge of emotional break down. I would try my best to console the friend. Be patient. If I already know the reason I would rather let the person vent it out even if through tears. Crying one's heart's fill does help as an emotional relief. If I dont know the reason, I will ask and wait and when I know, I will help them sorting out the solution of disturbance.

Please in summer you must use nice body spray before giving her a tight hug :cb: else she can beat u :omg:

Re: What’s the right thing to do at the time?

I didnt think about it
okay
i will :sannan: her at the end :@:

Re: What’s the right thing to do at the time?

Another good idea if he/she is crying then in summer give him/her a tight hug and definitely he/she will push you and say "yaar naha to lia karo " and after that he/she will forget abt her/his pain and start fighting on this subject :smiley:

Re: What’s the right thing to do at the time?

if the crying party is female friend ( which i never had), i would love to give her a big huggy and then offer my shoulder to her, she can cry as much as she want on my shoulder… i won’t mind that :cb:

if he is male ( which i have alot) then, would keep a distance of one feet and would let him cry for few minutes and then talk… ( guys normally don’t cry in front of other guys)

Re: What’s the right thing to do at the time?

It would be very ajeeb situation for me because i can give advice and listen all the problems of my friend but if they start crying in front of me then i don’t have any idea how to deal with it. I am really bad in these situations.

As one of my friend called me "Rotal Khichdi"few days back because i can easily cry. So if i am crying i will expect the shoulder to cry on or soothing words from my friends. They should give me a solution as well. and all the tasli and dalasa :silly:

Re: What's the right thing to do at the time?

If a friend of mine starts crying I give them a big hug and let them cry it out for a bit in my arms. Then I pass them some tissues after they've calmed down a bit, and ask them what's wrong.

Re: What’s the right thing to do at the time?

I just start crying with them. I support them in this way :teary1:. But I do hug them while crying my heart out :smiley:
