How do you prefer to be comforted when you're upset?
Mhm, i don't necessarily need someone to fix me when i'm upset but i do appreciate a comforting presence. I prefer someone who just listen and give me space to express what i'm feeling without judgement. Just being there, not pushing too much, but offering that quiet, steady support is what really helps me.
It varies depending on the situation. Sometimes, I find comfort in hugs or kisses, while other times, I prefer to have some alone time, just by myself.
Rather than being comforting, I need my space to process everything first. Being disappointed is one of the most crucial things that turns me off. So honestly, it's difficult to make me back to normal after that. Aside from an acknowledgment of their fault and an apology, I also need reassurance repeatedly. Only when I've felt a little better, then I'll accept that comforting itself. A cuddle is usually effective for me.
