The bottom line
If they disagree with the question or the response, clarify that they do not even know what’s upsetting them or that they don’t know how to communicate it either. Friendship isn’t based on walking on eggshells; it’s based on fear. When a “friend” is angry, it is their job to represent themselves. It’s petty, nasty, and primitive to play games and give someone quiet treatment. After you’ve heard them out, give them some space and consider your reaction.
Remember, your goal is to have a fun time with your friends and not hurt their feelings.
