Posted by Anonymous on 2014/05/13 under Uncategorized I think one of the biggest problems I face lately comes from my best ability, being people’s sounding walls and shoulder they cry on. But then there’s no one to be the same for you, and it hurts. I’m pegged as the “best listener” in my family and its not only true its true by a landslide. No one else hears a word I have to say or just agrees and starts on how that relates to their life. Has anyone ever heard of the concept shut up and listen? Am I the only one?
I’m a writer, mind you not a published one, but that’s the only way I can communicate and truly lay out all of my feelings sometimes. MOST of the time. I have lots of friends because I’m great at keeping the conversation on them, but at the same time they’re such dull relationships because its never reciprocated. Am I not letting them do so? Sometimes I truly try to open myself willingly and with trust, but then I don’t feel like they CARE enough to listen and are just doing so patiently so that they can get a turn too. UGHH.
To put it shortly, I really need to find a way to clone myself and use my own shoulder.
