Really need to talk to someone

EmmanuelGoldstein January 23rd, 2016

Would anyone be prepared to talk to someone who is incredibly bitter and nihilistic and has also had it with this site's listener system?

Trust me, I'm sick of being put with people who I've blocked or have less than 2 stars.

Hi there

I am sorry you seem to have had a run of listeners who were an ill fit for you. This can be so frustrating and demoralizing. Having the courage to talk about you worries and then having to start again with someone new.

have you tried browsing for a listener? You can use the filters and keywords to hopefully find a better match and read the reviews others have left - https://www.7cups.com/BrowseListeners/

is the link for this I hope it helps and you find a listener you can connect and relate too.

good luck

@Rycochet The reason why I don't use that system is because I wouldn't know who to choose or whether or not they'll be online at the time of speaking.

But I guess I don't really have an option now. Thanks for the link,

@Rycochet

Hello again.

After using that link to the Browse Listeners page and attempting to talk to listeners through that. I can conclude that it's given me an even worse experience. The listener system is totally wasted on me. One is a blind trial and puts me with people who have terrible ratings and prove it by giving me an equally terrible experience. Or better yet I get put with people who I've blocked. And the other system lets me choose someone who has a really great rating so you would think it would work better right? No, the ratings are so deceptive. Instead I get put with people who either ignore me, block me or are rude forcing me to block them.

Sorry if this is a bit depressing, callous or however you want to see it. It's just today has given me an appalling experience with the listener system. I really don't know what the point of coming on here is anymore. I came here to get listened to. For someone to talk to. Isn't the whole idea of the "listeners"?

Instead, all I've found is the same thing that I always experience. Getting ignored or asked to go away. Not a very caring and accepting place is it?

I am sorry to hear this has been your experience and can understand your frustration. I am only here using my mobile just now - not taking chats as such but if you would like to message me we could hopefully find a mutually agreeable time.

​Every listener here has a different listening style and knowing when to adapt it comes with experience in my opinion.

I can't promise we will ' click' but if you want to try I will do my best

@Rycochet Hi again, sorry about that rant. I really needed to get it out.

But I might as well talk with you, I don't have anything better to do.
