How do men comfort a woman they care about when she’s worried?

[thundercloud]

The reason why I'm asking this question is because I wanted to know how men would calm down the women that they care about if they are worried for example: men sees the women that they care about that she is worried about something and the men asked the women that they care about what's wrong? And the woman tells the men that she is worried about her dreams and the men tell her that everything will be fine , not worry about it and she doesn't need to worry about anything that the men will always be there for her if she needs any help with problems and please no inappropriate opinions and please appropriate opinions

Men, all men?

Boy that's a lot of options! Okay then get ready for the bullet list in your head:

• Some will tell you to buckle up.
• Some will slap you to "make you stronger".
• Some will hear you without listening.
• Some will not know what to do.
• Some will not give a damn about your feelings.
• Some will listen to you venting.
• Some will listen to you then try to say something appropriate.
• Some will listen to you then tell something inappropriate.
• Some will cuddle you.
• Some will die from a heart attack, just bad luck.
• Some will panic.
• Some will flee the scene.
• Some are not real people, they're just imaginary figures you made up because you're experiencing a psychotic breakdown. That, or psychedelic drugs.
• Feel free to add more options to the list.

I would do anything I could to help her

Men are typically solution-focused, so if she’s worried about something they’ll tell her every reason why she shouldn’t. In some cases, this can work. In others, she’s not in need of solutions but comfort during a time of processing the emotion in her physical body, so it can feel dismissive.

It’s going to depend on their relationship (friends, boyfriend, married) and how they know how she responds best.

If he loves and cares about her , he will comfort her by being there for her and be a listening ear , and let her know no matter what he is by your side , to make her feel safe and secure and loved. He can’t magically take her worries away , but he can be supportive of her any which way he can , hoping whatever is bothering her will eventually stop bothering her

So I would say most men try to offer advice and fix things instead of listening and being empathetic in the moment - that's not to say that men aren't empathetic - it that most guys aren't good with feelings and are problem solvers. When women come with problems a lot of time they are just needing a sounding board and a verbal journal, they are just wanting to feel heard.

Well men try to speak with them and do things they actually like

I would talk with her about her fears and worries and comfort her by gentley holding her close helping her push her fears and worries aside.
