well, i have this friend and she recently a break down in drama class and the teacher let us go outside and just sit and talk, but i didnt know if i should talk about her problems or just try to distract her since there wasnt really anything to do about them (family problems). i ended up asking her what she wanted from me, (in a less demanding way than that) but i feel like i was making the situation more about me and less about making her feel better by doing that. anyone have any advice on how i could have handled this situation better?

Maybe give some free advice about: Friendship?
Since I have broken down during class a lot I know that when people bug me about what's going on I get really annoyed. Try asking your friend if she wants to talk about it. If she says yes then listen to her and comfort her. If she says she doesn't want to talk about it then just be there for her to cry on. Try cracking some good jokes around her to make her laugh or tell her something funny that happened to you in the past. Avoid the subject of family. If she feels secure enough she might actually come to you and tell you what is wrong. Hope I helped!

well i mean you can still listen to her problems... (thats what friends do) but tell her that you dont really know what to do && maybe she should see a counselor? i dont know but still listen to her && try && help her. she seems like she really needs a friend right now. && you should be there for her && you seem to be doing that. just make sure she knows yur there for her always! =)

just tell her how you feel..basically what u just wrote up there...and tell her that you want to help her but you're not sure how..and that if she needs anyone to talk to that you'll always be there for her..even if its just to listen to her problems
