Reply #30: Yeah, because I didn't play "Ain't it awful" with him and explained my experiences with a bike

So I should just say it's all hopeless? Having you ever hear of that game "Why don't you, yes, but?" You give someone who feels down advice and then they always come back with some reason why they can't do this or that. So it's too far to walk, the bus is too full...Damn it! I believe that my echoing that defeatist behavior is not helping anyone, but feel free to join the negativity club, if you think that is the way to make him feel better about life. I just happen to disagree. (That IS okay, isn't it?)
