You can smile. You can break her mood with your humor. You can comfort her. You can listen to her. You can give her space. All are good tools of the trade. Unfortunately we men love fixing things.
This is a problem in particular for guys today because of a single, amazing thing that we completely take for granted:. They tolerated our moods, let us act out, coddled us, gave us what we wanted, and most of all made us feel like we were incredibly special and deserving of everything we wanted.

A crescent appears, revealing a thin sliver of light just before it waxes into a first quarter moon.
Spiritually: The waxing moon represents intention, hopes, and wishes. After recharging under the new moon, you may start to feel more motivated and ready to embrace your desires. This is when you should spend time breathing life into your intentions, taking the first steps toward your goals, and getting excited about the journey that lies ahead. Scientifically: The moon reaches the first quarter a week after the new moon.

This is when the results of all your hard work are revealed. The seed you planted on the new moon has blossomed and bloomed, making itself ready to be harvested.
