I am the one that always listens to anyone that needs to talk. I dont talk much so I'm the perfect listener. Everyone comes to me with their problems and I like to be there to help and listen.

I wish I could say I do... but I do not! I do try my best to listening to same problems over and over again when the person will change the situation or has the asnwers and will do nothing about it. Sometimes even at work a co-worked can explain a problem for over 1 hour and some people are 3 steps ahead of that person and there solution to the problems. I do my best to listen to my children and if I had a boyfriend I would listen to him too. Thanks and have a great day! Sincerely Unique16

I sometimes listen and sometimes not.Depends if for example i have a problem i can't listen to the other because i have to solve mine and i can't listen it's like i'm on autopilot.But when i don't have any problem i gladly offer companionship and i listen with pleasure.

If the person is a very close friend or someone who is willing to share his/her problems of course I would listen. There were even times before that I was also in a problem but since a friend have been updating me about her problems too I was not able to tell her my own worries

STrange isn't it? It's hard to squeeze in my own problems, I think it will be very gloomy for both me and the one telling me his/her problems if I tell my own problems.

Of course, if a friend came to you and saying his/her problems and in response you are saying your problems, he/she will really get worried and for you too,, if you both going to your common friend he will ran away of hearing both problems,,, i suggest is pls pls let the problems go away as their own how it came.. Everything will be fine in the morning... Cheers..!! V

I most of the time listen to problems of other people, mostly the ones that I am well acquainted with. I offer them my opinions and perspective in order to solve the problem. Sometimes it becomes a tedious process though, as some people tend to talk too much and not listen, also sometimes they start repetitiously indulging in self pity and negativity. But I think I am a fairly patient person and if it is a genuine problem I would also try to help them as much as possible.

I am a person that tends to listen to other people and their problems, but sometimes i feel that some people make the problems for themself.If people are having a problem with a mutual friend then i tend to listen, but never offer advice, as i feel like piggy in the middle.If people are putting another person down, i try to not listen, as i feel that the person is being two faced and indeed are back stabbers.

I will to do so within reason. The problem is that some people that I know tend to take a rather sympathetic ear and use it more than they should. If they seem to be venting to that level and have that many problems, well we all have problems. But some of us tend to rather tend to do it over the top to the point where they might need some professional help rather than ranting at me. Granted, sometimes every now and again when we freak, it is good to have an ear or two out for you. But there are times where it really does go a bit over the top with some people. I am happy to listen like I said, within reason. And really if they need a few minutes to vent, that's great, but some people are unreasonable with how much they complain.

I will listen to others' problems so long as other people want to pour out their troubles to me. I regard it as a sign that other people trust in me and I am very happy to enjoy the feeling. And I will try to comfort them within my ability. I am also so lucky that my friends are all such kind of warmhearted person and whenever I met with trouble they are ready to help me and it really feel good to have someone there to help when you need it.

The most that i could do to my friends to help them is to be their crying shoulder. I am willing to listen to their problems and suggest some solutions . I may help them monetarily, but not that much , because i have my own budget too.

Yes, I am a very good listener. I can sympathize and console a friend in need. Many of my friends have failed relationships and they always come to me for some sympathy. They know that I have gone through a lot of heartache. If the friend needs some advice then I am capable of giving it but otherwise I am not into giving unsolicited advises.
