I think you have different friends for different reasons. Everyone shouldn’t play the same role in your life. There’s some friends you can vent to over and over again and then there’s some friends who just want to help you solve the problem. You must respect the difference. Some people don’t have the capacity to hear certain problems over and over again and it can be triggering for them. I’ve saw plenty of conversations about this and ppl have really different opinions on it. I respect all opinions but my thoughts on it is, friends are friends, friends are human, friends have boundaries. Friends can help you heal, they can pray with and for you, and they can get you through a lot of things but friends are not therapist (with the exception of some) and if you’re friends lot you vent to them over and over again then by all means continue to do so. But if you have a friend that just doesn’t have the capacity to handle you venting about the same thing over and over again then as a friend you should respect the boundary. Everyone is dealing with something and your problems on top of their problems may just be too much for them to handle. It doesn’t mean they are not a good friend. . . I am a problem solver. I just want to solve the problem so my friends can be happy and move forward. . . How do y’all feel about this topic? Ps: anyone dealing with tough situations, I pray you get through what you’re going through and I believe a good therapist can help. A lot of therapy is covered through medical insurance.
