Bio

Hey! I'm glad you found me on 7 Cups of Tea. I discovered this site because I felt alone and needed someone to talk to, and that's exactly why I became a listener. I want to be that someone to talk to that I was looking for. I've been through a lot in my life, and I want you to know that you can talk to me about absolutely anything, and I will happily listen! I am an open-minded person whose just looking to try to make a difference, because whoever you are looking at this right now... you are a special person who deserves to be happy! :)

We Need To Be Better

...See more I have been a listener for a long time. Recently, I've had numerous members/guests coming to me with complaints about innapropriate behavior from listeners, long wait time when waiting for a message back, and a majority of other issues. As listeners, we need to dedicate ourselves to helping people. Even if the conversation is "hard" even if its "not interesting" we need to stick through it. it seems so many listeners are blocking members/guests and they tell me about it. It seems that so many listeners are taking 3+ conversations and taking a long time to reply back. PEOPLE. These people need help. They need assistance. We signed up for this. Today someone told me a listener tried to ask for her social media accounts. THAT IS NOT OUR JOB. It makes me so mad, because honeslty I've seen such a deterioration in the quality of listeners over the years. Please. Try to be better. Please.... for them.

...See more This sadness consumes me and my thoughts straightjacket my soul: Why can’t the burning flame of love keep burning, long after it has been lit? Why must it slowly dim and in the end consume itself into smoke? Candles aren’t made to last forever, maybe love isn't either

He actually talks about the problem. He doesn't just ask questions to change the subject. I feel like hes a friend already
Pretty much the best conversation I have had in awhile. Very fun and laid back, yet still extremely helpful. Just like talking to a friend. It was exactly what I needed.
Enjoyed every minute :)
