There's consequences of sharing things with people nowadays but not everyone is wrong there are people who are very good listeners and I can tell you that I'm in one of those good listeners and I've been one for a very long time now
That people often comes to me only to tell about what they're feeling like and what's going on in there life.
The Art of Listening: People Need to be Heard
Most of the time people only opens up and talk about things when they're most vulnerable and that's when people who listen take advantage of their vulnerability.
I've seen people using what they share in future when things get a little messy in their relationship.
You know what when someone share something to me they're not like "don't tell anyone else about it, I'm sharing it to you" they're like you know what happened and they'd just spill everything doesn't matter what it is
Cause that's the kind of trust you should build with people you're close or think are important for you.
I've talked to most depressed people and never judged them like people would do nowadays taking everything as joke
But just hearing them makes half of their problems disappear like it doesn't even exist.
I was more surprised when
One of my friend from like past COVID one day texted me who lives out of country for studies and he was like mad upset and alone there
Had failed in some subjects and was stressed about it.. telling me about how his parents only care about one thing that's getting results and that degree.
Never seen a guy like him been that down but it's life and things happen to surprise you most of the time.
The same guy I once told that I don't have money to go on about my day and offered me helped instead of judging.
There's this one girl
Who'll only text me when there's something to share with me like more people contact to me only when they have something to take off their chest.
And I kind of feel good about that because those people think I'm right person to be trusted with that.
Even in my family my aunts who are all older than me would share things with me because I would hear and give solutions that makes sense.
It'd be so easy to fight with stress, anxiety or depression like things only if there are more listeners who'd listen to these people who think they'd be exploited if shared what they feel with anyone.
And we need to do better and become an example so people can trust and talk more about it everyday.
Incase anyone here want to talk about anything, just hit me up and I'd do. Wonder what you think? Do share your thoughts in the comments.
