You are not supposed to be an inanimate object. You're supposed to listen, acknowledge, talk about the topic at hands. Empathize, ask questions to better understand the problem. Show interest in your significant other, show them you care about what is upsetting them.

Sometimes people get stuck on the "have you tried the most basic and simplest answer?" questions and it's frustrating as hell. You can just ask "wanna brainstorm about it?", at least you're setting the mood in the right direction.
