One time I was sitting with my best friend Susie after a crisis not quite knowing what to say, so not saying anything for quite a long while. After an hour or so, I apologized for being so quiet but told her I really was at a loss for words. I will always remember what she said to me, " Chrissy, sometimes it's nicer to have someone to just be quiet with than have someone trying to find the right things to say, you are a very good friend, and I have enjoyed just being with you." Sometimes I think it is just about "being" with another person.
