[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have told her I am there for her before. Her behavior as I said is quiet and distant around me making me feel she doesn't need me. I can't be expected to read her mind.[/quote] Saying you’re there for her doesn’t help her. Make specific offers to help. Not “call me if you ever need anything.” Don’t make her ask you to be her friend. Acknowledge her situation, apologize for misreading her signals, ask if she needs a night out to take her mind off things, or helps with a specific task, or a sitter so she can do whatever she needs. It’s hard to offer specific suggestions for how to help without knowing what her situation is, but presumably you know more and can figure out a way to help. [/quote]
