I used to be a very close with people and they would share me their feelings or ask me for help. I really liked doing it because I really wanted to help them and because I want to be a psychologist. Lately, no one goes to me. It's fine for me because sometimes, I suck at comforting them and I don't want to disappoint them.

I used to talk to this guy about his problems and that made me feel so happy because I thought he trusted me . Turns out, he talks to a bunch of people about his problems. Currently, he talks a lot to my sister. I'm okay because I'm too young to understand but in a way, it hurts to know that I can't be a person he can turn to.

Has this happened to you guys? How did you guys feel? I just want to know if you guys ever felt this way.

I don't really care, someone else probably has more "normal" things to say anyways.
My opinions would probably deter anyone from fitting into society lol

Oh my, same here mannosuke.

I will never turn to a certain friend of mine for help or tell her secrets. She has a big mouth. Not about my issues, but about my other friends. Which is good that now I know!

I used to do that too! Somehow, all these random people's problems would be my problem and I would always try to give them advice or help them out in their relationship blahblah. Then they stop talking to me and it did kinda hurt. It's like you're being used and tossed away like a dirty napkin.

But now, I don't even want to deal with anyone's troubles anymore. People can make their own decisions. Focus on your own life!
loving you is easy

yep i have experienced a similar thing before. it didn't really bother me because i knew these people still trust me and i figured that we were entering into our point of our lives that we learned to face our own problems without asking for advices (a part of maturity).

so maybe these people who used to turn to you are now maturing?

D'aw! Well, sometimes people are open to more than one person, you know? It could be the comfort level, too. You know? How you talk to one person and feel this way, while another person you feel the other way. Maybe one is more affectionate, while the other gets to the point. Do you want affection, or the straight answer? So it could be kind of that. I'm sure you give great advice! If you love helping people then you can still spread your joy of helping and help others! Heck, there are people on this forums who would love your advice I'm sure. smile.gif I'm always helping people, and I love to give my ideas but I do know not everyone will come to me when they need it, there are many other people in the world. But I'll do my best to those who are out there. So don't let it get to you too much!

Haha nope this doesn't bother me. It's happened to me too but I don't take it personally. Every situation you can go to different people for different advice. Depends on who's opinion you want to hear and I don't ever take it personally o-o And when they just tell a lot of people for attention then I truly pity them and attention they will get. Maybe then they'd grow up a little.

You don't listen to people's problems to "feel trusted". You listen to them to help them.

I don't really mind if people don't come to me for advise but I'm always there to listen if the just need to rant about something. Whenever someone wants advise I just tell them that they know what's right and wrong, they already know what they're suppose to do, I don't just tell them you have to do this or that because in the end, it's their situation, their problem.

You really can't control who people will trust, just because they do not turn to confide in you does not mean they don't see you as a person who they can trust.. don't feel bad about it smile.gif I've been in that situation before and you know, it's always good to get more than one opinion if someone is going through a hard time.
