This may sound strange, but how do you make someone happy?

So paying attention without being overbearing showing them I care can make them happy.

I can't say what will make them happy exactly, but I think that's probably a good way to start on finding out what will?

[lostinshadows]

Does it work for you?

[latebloomingeros]

If I were the one who was upset, it's what I'd want someone else to do. Just... listen, and be there, and care, without worrying so much that I feel worse for causing them trouble.

[lostinshadows]

I see. Thank you for the advice.

[latebloomingeros]

You're welcome. I don't know if I have much experience helping other people feel better, but I do hope it helps.

[lostinshadows]

It's the thought that counts, right?

[latebloomingeros]

That's true. At any rate, good luck with whoever you're trying to cheer up :)

[lostinshadows]

Thanks.
