I think I've come to notice that most friends/ people in general, will listen to you complain about your problems to a certain extent. But not only that they will listen to certain problems for longer or shorter based on their level of interest. For example, they will listen to someone talk about relationship problems because that's seen as "juicy gossip" or "drama." The same reason many people tune into reality T.V. shows every week. The reason for this is because, IT'S INTERESTING. It's something you can tell someone else later. You can talk a lot more about someone having trouble with their boyfriend or the fact they're in a fight with their best friend than you can about their insecurities.
Often if I try to talk to anybody about being depressed or being insecure they will tell me I'm being "emo" or that it isn't a big deal or to just kinda get over it and that I'm being ridiculous. But in my opinion, these are the problems which effect us more. They could even be the underlying cause of the more interesting problems. No one wants to hear about my self worth issues but they are exactly the reason why I have been in almost non-stop relationships since high school. And since I don't really get to talk about it with anyone, I never get to the root of the problem and the cycle continues. But what can I expect, my friends aren't therapists and I wouldn't want them to be. So that's why I have this blog, so I can talk over my problems with myself, in a public space.
Hmm...If I wrote about my drama with other people would my blog get more views?
