Need someone to talk to? - General

[QUOTE=iRex;42276311]My favorite thing about this site has got to be the aliases. "kind-hearted toothpaste" is my all time favorite.[/QUOTE] Stupendous pancake.

Just saved a relationship.

I keep opening this wanting to vent but then I feel like my problems aren't worthy of somebody listening to them, I see people struggling with genuine heavy depression and people dying, grieving etc and it's like I don't want to take a potential listener away from them

This website really is nice. I've finally found somebody who feels a specific kind of loneliness in the same way I do. Nobody's ever said "I relate" to me before this.

I finally persuaded myself to vent and they disconnected a few messages in. Oh well

Hey geog, I sent you a friend thing :v:

[QUOTE=geogzm;42297475]I finally persuaded myself to vent and they disconnected a few messages in. Oh well[/QUOTE] Keep trying dude, its a diceroll about the people you meet there.

This was my first listener conversation. [url]http://pastebin.com/8FYc0Pkn[/url] Is there anything I could've done better? I probably shouldn't be messing around on there anyways. ;-;

This website makes me feel happy :')

I met a girl through here the same age as me. She was cute, sweet, she knew the loneliness I felt inside out. She was an American living in Germany, and I developed feelings for her pretty fast and I thought she did for me. She calls me attractive all the time and asks to see my face when we call on Skype. Two nights ago, we had a long conversation and we were both pretty tired and things were going so quickly that we said we loved each other and within two minutes we were both like 'what are we doing'. The next day, she's in London on a day trip with her family and barely gets to speak with me. I feel anxious wondering if I'll even get to speak to her after we'd gone so fast. Come 1am, I send her stupid paragraphs out of anxiety and eventually she tells me that we could only ever be friends and here's the kicker, that she needed to come to terms with her sexuality and that long distance would never work for her. Fuck everything. I got so close to what I wanted. Fuck. [editline]f[/editline] I've vented about it. I don't feel good. Is it bad that I find it easier and more comfortable to vent to females? It feels more natural for me to. With men, this sounds stupid, but I feel strange. I can talk to guys like about problems and stuff but 100% in depth venting, I dunno, strange or something. [editline]fuckbutt[/editline] I finally had the balls to click listen. It's really great. I feel like I'm doing something useful for once. [editline]lol[/editline] [quote]You Hey just now How are you? just now Venter female here. you? just now You I'm a male. just now Venter get a life[/quote] i'd better check my privilege huh [editline]lol[/editline] update on that chick, she's acting exactly like one of my ex-girlfriends did - I told her if she didn't want to speak anymore she should tell me instead of blocking me and she said she wanted to keep talking, I'm pretty sure she's blocked me on skype and kik - which reminds me of my ex, who also took the easy way out when it came to dealing with people fuck some people but not everybody

[QUOTE=cheesylard;42007277]Man, helping some of these venters is HARD[/QUOTE] Some of them just go in circles and don't listen to what you tell them. We're not therapist so I guess that's when you're supposed to just recommend a real therapist or professional help. It's happened to me a couple times. I did help this one young kid feel better about not caring about what the other more fortunate kids have at school though. This is odd because we might actually be helping each other right now since it's all anonymous haha

Well I mostly get girls looking for relationship problems, so I guess Im not helping anybody here

same here

I needed to vent but the site says I've been auto-banned even though I've never gone on it before :( oh well.

just convinced a girl who spent 10 years growing up in foster care cause her dad left and her mom was in jail for dealing coke to go visit her mom who just got out of jail. wat

I tried being a listener for a while but i feel like i'm not helping them :(

So, happy update, decided to shoot a mail at the girl I was talking to a couple of months ago, she says shes doing quite well these days. -happy sigh- I'm glad, I'm very glad to hear that.

I'm loving this website. It's such a rewarding feeling to know you made a positive impact on someone's life.

Helped someone ! [quote]aww youre right!!! that was such good advice youre so good at this[/quote] [quote]omg youre completely right. youre literally helping me realize so much about myself[/quote] [quote]youre seriously so helpful youve changed my perspective around so much[/quote] I love the feeling

Just helped end a reaally, reeaally, disrespectful relationship. Boyfriend quite older than the girl, 12 years. Boyfriend just recently "disappeared" for the second time, just cuts off all ties to his girlfriend, becomes a total dick, ignores calls and what not. In the end just told her to do whatever she needs to do, to stop worrying, there's always other people, and always always be happy with who you are, what you do, what you've done, and what you will do in the future. The key to success is happiness, and the more happy someone is the more appealing they are as well. [I]Also, if anyone from here wants to vent about something with someone who's a guaranteed person who will listen and not a troll, feel free to PM me on fp or add me on steam. whatever works best for you.[/I]

I didn't think it would help with a problem i was having but talking with someone about your problem really does help. I feel less depressed and a lot more confident now.

you really have no idea what you're gonna get with this site. sometimes it's a 14 year old girl who just broke up with her boyfriend because he cheated on her... and sometimes it's a 20 year old woman who was sexually abused by her uncle, then was raped by 2 different boyfriends and now spends her life in drudgery and fear in her indifferent mother's shop, where she currently feels tired all the time and wants to end her life. whenever I end up with the former, I have to resist the urge to tell them about the latter.

Yeah, it is bit of a gamble. Sometimes I go there as a listener and hope to get someone with problems like asking a guy out, but turns out that I'm talking to some mother who is 7 months in pregnant and she has hemophilia so she may die when she gives birth. I start to feel really bad because I have no idea how to help.
