I did not forget to answer, my answer was simply not accepted. The act of talking to each other about an issue can itself reduce the burden. There aren't magic words that make any person feel better. OP may always have some lingering discontent, but that's life. Sometimes it's just about managing the discontent. It's not a sure-fire solution. Hard problems rarely have such a thing. But I'd bet on discussion performing better than no discussion is most scenarios. Even if it lead you to finding new friends.
