    You've got empathy and sympathy the wrong way around, although neither necessitates previous experience.

    If you were my friend and I was trying to be there for you, but when I tried to comfort you I was met with patronisation and anger, I would find that annoying.

      I have never, ever shown anger towards my friends. Never have and never will. If one of my friends do something that does make me slightly angry (I'm not an angry person in general so it takes a lot), I make a polite excuse and then go and deal with the issues myself. I have barely shown anger to anyone in my life, never mind friends. They are the ones who deserve the highest respect and that's what they get from me, always.

        I must have interpreted you wrongly then, because the word "exploded" certainly indicates anger to me.

          I mentally exploded, she pulled my last string and explained the situation to her in the nicest way possible.
