The only thing is, she's becoming less and less enthusiastic about work (which isn't the problem...but is part of the cause)and becoming more irritated/angry/stressed/etc. We mostly talk online and she tells me all her problems and I listen, but since I'm a pretty easygoing guy and nothing really bothers me, my responses sometimes lack the same hateful compassion, but carry the more of the "glass is half full" kind of side in comparison to her Glass is half empty, and as a result, it seems like she gets more irritated/angry/etc...So basically I was just wondering, how should I respond next time so she'll actually feel better or just generally what I can do to cheer her up.She says she envies how I'm always so happy (it doesnt take much to make me happy, just being around people in general make me happy)and it'll make me happyier if shes happyier xDThanks for any advice ^-^
