Sorry, word soup but wanted to chime in. A number of people like to spend time around me because I encourage them to think through difficult problems and celebrate their victories.
I think the issue is that I’m trying to reach someone on a logical level because due to our history and their current situation, I’m unable to connect emotionally.

Not word soup at all! It makes a lot of sense.
