Good Listener

I am a good listener also , and I like to provide that when my love ones need that . To be honest if my friends are always telling me the same thing over and over , I would likely tune them out when I have enough , I dont like hearing scratch record .

Listening and giving out your own opinion or advice is good,but listening without talking at all is not good, it will look as if the other person doing the talking is a fool. So listening and talk when is necessary is a very good thing... Happy mylotting... :D

When I am not familiar with the people I am with, I simply listen to their conversation, too. I prefer to listen than to talk. Sometimes I consider myself as a boring company. LOL. However, when I am with my family, colleagues and friends, of course I do talk a lot. Sometimes, it's just good to be a listener. Happy mylotting.

It's good to be alistener. I do listen too alot especially those people who wants to experess thier depression in life and aches. Listening is one of the medicine needed for those who are in trouble. Keep it up. And if ever they want to ask your point of view just stay positive always.

How come it causes problems? Do people think you are not listening since you are not responding? I think most people like to ventilate/talk and for that you need a listener not someone who will interupt you and give you unwanted advices. So I think you are a lot in the lotery if it comes to that. Nothing wrong with you and remember: you can not satisfy everyone.

Sometime I am a listener, and sometimes I am a talker. The time when I am a listener, it is the time my friends or family member are in trouble, or they want to share what happen in daily work. I will listen silently till they finished all the words. Sometimes I will give my opinion, or share something silimar together with them. If I always keep silent, the talker would be confused. He may thought whether I am angry or in low mode. So I think it is better to give some response. Sometimes, when something happy, sad or strange happened around, I would also like to share with my husband or my friends, or some workmate. At this time I am a talker, they are the listener. They will also laugh together with me, or show a surprise face, or give me some advice. They would make time more fun or better. I always think that people should share experience, mind frequently. This makes everybody grow up faster, and happier.

Sometimes, most people tell their friends of their problems not because they seek advises, but because they just need someone to listen to them and to feel that someone's there for them, that they are not alone. And personally speaking, I am one of those few who also prefer good listeners for friends, unless of course I ask directly for any advise. I am not a good talker, sometimes I'm afraid to say the wrong things and make the other person worse than what she is already feeling. That is why I also would like to think that I can be a good listener. I'm more of a listener than a talker.

They say that a silent or quiet persons have lot to know or deep thinkers. I think being a good listener is good however one should weigh what he listens to. A good listener learns many things too. have a nice day!
