what a girl/guy thinks.

Today I experienced something really interesting - how a girl/guy thinks.
One of my co-workers was sitting across from me and she wasn't feeling well to begin with. My manager then comes over to tell her something about a file she was working on. It probably wasn't that bad, but just frustrating to hear. But then, she started to break down and it made the manager very uneasy (yes, he is a guy!). He then said "Okay. Calm down. Breathe and relax." I just looked at them and immediately in my mind I was thinking that he shouldn't say that...she doesn't need to know to breathe...she just wants to be left alone...but he kept saying that! and then he left cause he felt really uncomfortable (from what I observed). Shortly after I asked her how she was feeling and from the conversation we had I understood where she was coming from or why she was tearing up (heheheh, it's a girl's thing!) and apparently the manager sent her an e-mail with lots of happy faces after he left. hahah! I couldn't help but laugh and smile because hahahaha! guys and girls think so differently. So different. I told her what I was thinking and she agreed with my thoughts that she wanted to be alone and that what he said didn't help her hahaha. awwwww, I thought my manager was pretty sweet hahahah! but I can't say sweet..or maybe I can :P At least he tried to cheer up her. But in all honesty, haha, guys don't understand how to comfort girls or well...how to react or what to say to them. Sometimes we don't need your instant "how-to-fix-this" advice. We just want you to either stay with us (and not say anything) or leave.
