givingitmyall, don't forget how we women like to talk to other women! You know how differently men & women "think" and she probably wanted to talk to a gf b/c she felt like another woman would "understand". Not that you don't understand, but it's like when two women go to the bathroom....together. Men don't do that! Go figure! That is just the female in us and it won't change. Continue to be there for her about her stress, etc., but you came very close to "pushing" b/c you wanted to help her so badly. I know it's hard and you feel you can't fixt this. Remember to let her come to you with her problems and you "listen".....don't fix it, just listen and sympothize. That is one reason we women turn to our gf to talk is for the sympathy.So, now you may feel as if I’m telling you to be like a woman! (lol) No so.
It is not about what you feel should work in your M. It is about doing the work that gets the right results. Do what works!
