You have always tried to be there for your friends when they needed you, but it’s important for you to remember that you cannot fix their problems right now — you can only support them in whatever solution they come up with. So don’t react too emotionally to someone else’s life problems right now, even if you care a lot about this person. Your compassion is admirable, but you can’t let your concerns for other people distract you from finding your own happiness.
