I'm guessing the rhyming tick is only temporary and as for the sympathy I think it can be thoughtful and kind, everybody has a bad day now and then - nice that someone took the time to even notice let alone express their concern.

It makes me feel better, at least for a few seconds.

Depends on how, when, and what kind of situation I'm in.

For you I reckon I will need a boom box for your rhyming.

its ok to a point

Gee stacy... it's been awhile since I think I might of gotten sympathy. I think 7 years ago my wife was feeling bad for me because of my job at work. I had to assure the powers at work that a construction company got a job done so they could head home for Thanksgiving. Damn...

Double the first bit before continuing, I just put it to a 12 bar, i here a single.

It depends on how they do it. If it's sincere and restrained, I appreciate it.

I was experiencing some difficult family circumstances many years ago, and a coworker who I shared the situation with sent me a card in the mail, and said she just wanted me to know she was thinking of me, and to let her know if I needed anything.

I really appreciated the thoughtfulness and discreet offer of help.

makes me feel very uncomfortable.

So you telling Neto toughen up ?
