A friend shares a personal problem. What should be the first step in an effective verbal response?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Listen without interrupting and acknowledge the feeling

The governing concept is empathetic listening. Before giving advice or comparing experiences, the responder should listen without interrupting and acknowledge the friend’s feelings. This shows respect, helps the speaker feel heard, and clarifies the real need. Telling one’s own story shifts attention, minimising the problem invalidates emotion, and unwanted advice may feel dismissive. Therefore, option B is correct.
