If someone in your life is Sobby Onion 💜 — Friend Edition

Sometimes a friend might suddenly go quiet, become distant,

or avoid eye contact and say very little.

You might think they’re “fine”…

but deep down, they could be quietly hurting.

🤝 So, how can you show up for a Sobby Onion friend?

💜 1. You don’t need to ask much — just let them know you’re there

Try sending a gentle message:

“I don’t know how you’ve been lately, but if you ever want to talk, I’m here.”

“It’s totally okay if you don’t feel like talking. I just want you to know you’re not alone.”

✅ For someone sensitive, silent presence can mean the world.

💜 2. Don’t rush to cheer them up — listen to their hurt first

“Has something happened recently that’s been bothering you?”

“You can tell me — you don’t have to pretend everything’s okay.”

✅ Being sad isn’t the problem. Not having someone who listens is.

💜 3. Reflect back the strength you see in them

“The fact that you trust me — that means a lot.”

“Saying you’re not okay shows how honest and brave you are.”

✅ Let your appreciation help mend their self-doubt.
