Solution: Under-promise and over-deliver
When a friend is having a hard time, all you want to do is make it better. It may feel tempting to promise the sun, the moon, and the stars just to put a smile back on their faces; however, it’s better to simply offer a shoulder to cry on and a listening ear until you’re completely certain about what you’re able to do to help. Only promise to do what you’re certain you can do and if you happen to be in the position to do more, let it be a nice surprise.
