One of the basics you look out for in a friend is the ability to listen. Even if they can't give you good advice or actually care about your problems, what you want is someone to just listen and, at best, make you forget what made you have to vent the first place.
So there's this one person who has been telling me about her issues with life and people around her. Then one day, I get quiet having my own things to mull over and she says "if you ever need to talk, I'll be here". The offer is genuine, I'm sure.
However the day came when I wanted to talk about a certain idiot we both know, and when I told her that he'd pop up just as suddenly as he left, she just replied "I'm done with him, he played me", and that was the end of it. No room for anything that I might have had to say.
So what if I wanted to talk about the idiot, even if you got played by him, you can't even let me say what I wanted before cutting me off?
Well, won't be bothered with all your crap anymore really and I'm not bothered this time around when you're being played again.
Bye Felicia!
