Friendly Ears: Do you?!?

At present, it is hard to find someone who can lend their ears to hear your sentiments in life. I, myself, cannot find a person like this. I used to have my lovely mother to hear me out. Now, I can only do it with my virtual friends. It is not like I do not have friends or family members to share with. One thing is, they have their own challenges in life, and I do not want to add more burdens to their lives. The mere fact is I can be a good listener. Are you a good listener?

You should know you can always talk with me about anything... Just go into the pms if it's something personal.

I only have virtual friends anymore. All my other friends have moved too far away for me to visit in person... You know I'll listen any time you need to talk.

I am sure I can give my time talking with you here. When I stepped into my university, I lost communication with my childhood friends.

@Shavkat I understand. All my friends from childhood grew up with other interests and we lost touch over the years.

@DaddyEvil It is also the same thing. I do not have any idea what is going on with my childhood friends now. We part ways with different interests in life.

Not as much as I would like to be. It takes patience.

I can agree more with you. It takes a lot of patience to hear someone's sentiments.

As a keen observant, I tend to know everything about others. But I tried not to talk about their issues to anyone.

I listen constantly. But sometimes I need a listener and feel a lack. I suppose that’s partly because I don’t have a life partner, but I will survive.

I think we are on the same boat. If I have a partner in life, I can share everything with her. For now, I can share my sentiments virtually.

It is a good thing that Yvonne is always with you, and share things with her. I hope I can have a special person to talk with in person.
