...You want to know how to talk people down, however. If that's the case, it's a matter of listening to them. Of knowing how to separate the important things from the unimportant... It's something that becomes easier with time. Find what they want or need from you, and offer it to them, and offer it sincerely. People can tell if you're insincere.
That's all I do. And it's all your friends have done.
