>they’re only interested in what they can get out of you.
No shit. But I would rather this be symbiotic rather than parasitic. I’m aware that friendships exist on a monetary level rather than an “emotional level.” and anyone who claims otherwise is a sociopath in their own right.
>they’re not big assets waiting for you to tap
So what? The boomers were right? You just bottle your fucking problems and die? I fucking hate that. I hate that we’ve made a career out of getting paid to bitch to a “professional listener.”
Like, a decade ago people used to be able to bitch to each other to and from and you formed legit brotherhoods off of that. Nowadays it’s just a fucking one way street, and I hate it.
