>want to socialise>just chat a little about this and that>talk to people online>they tell me I'm a great listener>they open up to me>maybe a bit too much>start noticing somethingIt's mostly women who do this shit. The females I talk to online simply dump their traumas onto me.Whether it's their mental illnesses, experiences, traumas or their emotions, etc.I'm not your emotional tampon.
>>85088007Where do you even chat online with people anymore besides pedocord? Anonymous chatrooms are either dead or full of gooners and forums are dying too.
>>85088033This. I want to know too.
>>85088007Would kms if someone called me a good listener, it's like someone calling me a cuck
>>85088007I like being an emotional tampon. I like being there for people, and I like helping if I can. Sometimes I get too wrapped up in other people's problems, though, and it stresses me out when I can't help them. Letting them talk, letting them know they'll be okay, offering a different perspective, or helping them figure things out.
>>85088200Good instinct. Protect yourself on the getting involved, though. I hope you have in whom you can confide as well.>>85088007It is fair not to like this. I used to want to write stories, so turning over and musing on human dramas once qualified as escapism for me. If people are telling me their stories, I get the opportunity to learn about them and probe. Still a general interest of mine, other people and their stories.
