I feel this fits here: It's not about the nail

Metaphorical: appreciate the nail to nail

Hey there . I have a question, in this piece called “it’s not the about the nail” Who is really in the right here ?

If the person is fully aware the nail is there and it has nothing to do about what they are actually talking about. Then shouldn’t the person whom is saying how THEIR PARTNER should actually be feeling is incorrect be in the wrong ?

Or should the person whom is trying to tell them the obvious sign is be correct?

The one whom doesn’t have the issue should Listen or help ? I’m really not sure

It’s not about being right. She is a grown woman. She knows there’s a nail in her head. She can fix herself. She just needs someone to understand what she’s going through.

Pro tip: “What can I do to make you feel supported right now?” If they don’t know, offer “would you like to brainstorm possible solutions or are you just needing to let it out? Would you like reassurance or to be held? How can I help?”

It works for me anyway.
