Are you a good listener?Do your friends often call you or come over to vent out their problems and frustrations to you.Do you really listen and try to help out or do you pretend to listen while sorting out other stuff in your mind at the same time.I always listen to my friends problems but when I am frustrated no one is ever there to listen to my problems,that is why I come to mylot to let it all out because you guys are such good listeners.

i think i am a good listener. many people seem to seek me out to tell me their problems. i just listen and suggest stuff. but sometimes i tend to get a headache. that is why i decided not to major in psychology and get into psychiatry. i dont think i can handle that headache.
and i dont really have anyone to tell my problems to either. so sometimes i turn to internet people, someone on one of my profile pages, my worldwide pen pal networking system...

Yes, I'm a good listener and family & friends have always come to me for advice or just to vent. I've learned that not everyone wants a solution to their problem, sometimes they just want to talk.

Yeah ^_^ I'm a good listener of ple's problems and i like to listen to problems and solve them.. However, i dun like to share my problem with others.. iNstead, i try to solve my own problem with other ple's problems.. Because some are their problems are solutions to my problems instead..
BUt if i'm listening to theirs, i'm really listening.. I dun believe in talking over the phone, If they really wanna talk about it, we will talk it face to face. .IN any case, it's much more easier and more sincere ^_^

Hello,neelygal! yes,of course I am a good listener and I really listen to my friends and relations who come to me for counseling.i listen to them patiently and suggest remedies for their problems.for bigger problems we sit together and discuss the problem and find out solutions.i think this is the best way for getting relieved of tension/depression.thanx.

Hi neelygal. Yes I am. All the time, not only friends, persons come to me to tell about their problems. And like you I don't have no one to listen me. Mylot is good I agree with you but the sad thing is that most of the people here care about earn money and don't really to your problems. Nothing is perfect cheers
