Took the thoughts right out of my head…
There comes a point in certain relationships when you just have to accept that things have changed. That they may be beyond repair. That you did all you could. That it’s time to move on.
I find myself in a similar situation often. I become the friend who listens. I won’t deny it-I’m fascinated by people. That’s why I majored in psychology. I love hearing about other peoples’ lives and emotions. So, I’m inquisitive. I listen. I offer any words of wisdom I can when someone seeks them. These are positive qualities I bring to friendships. I find though that often people will take advantage of that. I don’t think they’re doing it purposefully. They just have an outlet and they’re using it.
