Alright, so this could be a lengthy one. For simplicity's sake, we'll make Me=me, my friend=B, and her ex boyfriend=X.

A few weeks ago B had a really crappy boyfriend. You know, those who mistreat you, are assholes to other people and generally aren't a likeable person. My friend, B, is one of the sweetest people in the world and recently got dumped by X. Hence, she's been feeling sad lately.

This is the second time she got dumped by him, because she gave him a second chance after having done something crappy to her the first time (she didn't say what). Anyways, the first time I was super supportive (and I still am). She would call me in the middle of the morning and I'd answer, she'd text me in the middle of important activities I had to do, and I even let her FaceTime me, knowing that I hate FaceTime. Second time has been the same, but not only is she sad, she's actively pessimist about almost everything, which I understand, breakups suck.

I was having a conversation with her a couple of minutes ago, and it went something like this:

B: I'm sad and I don't know why

Me: Is it because of X?

B: No, it's because I have nothing that I really love in life.

Me: (Being surprised at such a strong feeling and claim) What do you mean by "really love"?

B: something that brings me joy. You've been sad for so long (I have diagnosed severe depression), I don't want that.

Me: If it's something that "brings you joy" then the word you're looking for is "enjoy" not "really love". And I'm sure there are, they're just not apparent to you or they don't last, which is normal in people in your situation.

B: are you really defining my sadness right now?

Me: I'm not defining your sadness, don't exaggerate. I can't let you be over-dramatic (could've worded it better, I know, but I couldn't find the words).

B: I don't like that.

Me: Look, I'm not trying to diminish your feelings in any way, I understand how you feel, but my point is sometimes people who go over a sad experience tend to see things worse than they really are. I'm trying to remind you they're not, because if you do it can become harmful to you or other people. (This is what I was attempting when I said it's not something "she really loves" but rather "enjoy").

B: I want to leave now (crying emoji). I don't like this conversation.

Me: okay, you can leave if you please. I'm not thing to make you feel bad, but if I am you can do so.

B: okay. leaves.

So, AITA or being insensitive? Is there something I'm missing? Was the correction I made to her THAT bad? I don't think so, and hence why I've come to the Internet for wisdom. Also, I want it to be clear that I'm not the kind of person who goes: "Come on, your problem isn't THAT bad, you have no reason to feel that way". I hate it when people do that, did it come out that way?

Wise people of the Internet, am I being an asshole?
