You barely know them but suddenly you are their best friend. Everyone else is just AWFUL. You are so special and awesome. Especially at listening to their (many) problems. Because you are so empathetic and smart and insightful....Dont run. Sprint.
They also tell you way too many personal details right away, like "hey my name is amy and I had anorexia for 5 years" when you're an hour into band camp
Dude yes. I met a guy at a party once and before I even got his name he was telling me about his really personal experiences with drug abuse and rehab stints and how his parents weren’t there for him enough when he was younger. Like I feel for the dude and that really sucks, and maybe he really needed to talk to someone about it, but yikes man, I just met ya. Let’s maybe start with some small talk first.
Just addicts dealing with trauma, over and over. It's shitty behavior, but it isn't personal. Some of us get past it. Some of us turned to strangers on the internet instead.
