Still I have to respond in some way so how should I reframe the situation in my head so that I know how I should respond?
"Aw sweetheart, that's horrible."
That is like a sympathetic response but seems uncaring or nonchalant?
So ladies, I understand you don't want us to solve your problems for you (in most cases) but how would you like your significant other to respond when you had a bad day?
TIA!
One variable that I wanted to add to this question (admittedly, I should've mentioned this in the original question) is that I'm in a long distance relationship so when she is venting, we are on the phone.
