Comfort them? Just be there for support and talk to them. That is all you can really do.

You don't need to handle her. Just be a friend and listen if she wants to talk.

Agree with the others,however if you are having trouble with that in practice you are not alone. I knew somebody like that in a peer support group. It is different if you are a friend but I know that I want "fix" a crying person and the way I was raised to hold everything in makes it extremely difficult.
