rejected.content: A sympathetic ear and open dialogue can be a great comfort. You can let your friend know that you're willing to learn and be supportive, as well as offer your encouragement and understanding. You can also provide resources that could be helpful, like suggested reading, support groups, and other community outlets. Respect their choices and recognize where they’re coming from – remember, everyone’s journey and path is different. Be patient and remember that this is a personal and often complex process. Most of all, trust that you’re there for them and remind them that they can always turn to you when they need a listening ear.
