Could you use some help about now?

Is there anything in life you could use help with? Anything at all?
I feel as though whenever I go to other people for real help, and actually ask for it, they are as clueless as me or they just state what I already know. They just never seem to be a source of much help. But when I am not really looking for help, I get some of it indirectly, like company or some people make me feel better. But if you tell them you're down, sometimes it's as though they try to hard and it does not seem to really work well.

Sometimes lending an ear could be enough to help a person. It makes the peron to feel better. There is no need to give an advice or say anything.

That is the same with me. there are only a couple of people in my life who truly know me and understand me. Other people just tell me what I already know or have already told them about me.

Hi Sheepie, Happy New year
I think this happen because they have not have that type of a problem. And when you less expect it people will help out in odd times. When I ask for help, sometimes it turns around and it focuses on them. and my problem is never solve. I learn now to listen to the person that needs that help and if I can I'll give her some advice,and when I need someone to talk to my friend is always there to listen to me. But, yes I understand what you're saying.
