Taking something in stride
Here’s a possible dialog:
A: Hey, did you hear that Jim got fired from his job?
B: Ya, he called me last night and told me.
A: How’s he doing?
B: He seems to be taking it in stride.
This means that Jim is doing a good job at handling the disappointment of getting fired. He’s not getting stressed out and going crazy about it.
Here’s another example:
A: Hey, I’m really sorry to hear that your girlfriend left you. How are you feeling?
B: I’m doing ok. I think this breakup might actually make us both happier.
A: I’m glad to hear you are taking it in stride.
