Well if you think about it, when one vents to you or if you happen to vent out anything yourself, don't you feel better? I don't mind if people have to vent, people do that to me all the time; on here, at work, friends and family. So, yes, in a way I do feel as if I help out one way or another. How can I tell? Well, most of the time whenever I get comments, letters or emails back from that individual, the way their email, letter, or comment is structured differently, but more positively. If you understand? Sometimes, when things get better for that person, they either thank me or just vanish and stop talking to me. I'm quite alright with the sudden silence. However, I'm not completely positive that, I, helped them or not. I always try to look at the best possible solutions. Either I did help or I wasn't what that individual really wanted or needed.

Yes, sometimes I learn a lot here on Gaia and other places on the internet as well. I used to get onto the internet to escape my life, but I tend to stay on Gaia only to talk to people, of course, and at least waste some time while I talk to my friends through Skype. I don't want to sit here and not do anything while waiting long for a reply back on the instant messenger. Though, I do happen to sometimes draw or paint while the internet seems stale and static, where nothing is of interest that day or week. You are right when you say that people come on the internet to escape reality or now, the internet has been a way to connect "socially" to people on such website like Facebook.

The real world can be a pain but there has to be something out there that will take our eyes off our technical devices to enjoy what life has to offer. I don't agree with many customs of the American culture/systems, but every culture/system in different regions of the world have their faults. I tend to figure out ways to curve the system and making it more of my own and what I want for myself and to those like myself as well. I embrace reality to its best potential, however, most people don't and that's okay with me. We all live different lives and have different outlooks and opinions than others.

It has nothing to do with persuading people. When someone wants to open up about their issues, they will. And if they want to listen to what I have to say, they will...or not. It's their choice. I would never persuade anyone or interrogate them into telling me "secrets" or anything they don't wish to tell me. Moments that are serious come and go for everyone. People talk to me because they wish to. I, by no means, have a clue as to why many people truly talk to me. However, I do know that one of my close friends in reality told me why she loves having me around and why I'm a good friend. She claims that I'm always one to listen to her whenever she needs to talk, I never judge what she wants to do or what she says, I give her other possibilities if she's in a sticky situation and I make her feel comfortable around me. I communicate with others. Communication in any relationship (lover, family, friends) are key for keeping everything alive and balanced.

As for me and anyone out there, having common interests with others is always a start for any acquaintances to grow into a friendship or a neutral relationship. Also, the fact that you ask questions is always a great start for anyone to get to know one another. Questions spark some sort of interest, right? An interest that could lead you to what you wish to know. Yes, you are right when you claim that I must have been through a lot, but doesn't everyone? I have, however, I am still growing, making mistakes either learning from them or not, and I'm still, in general, learning. Learning how to live my life. I'm only 20 years old but I've been taking in my surroundings and asking such questions like the one's you have and many more since I was 12. I'm not a genius, I'm not a straight A student, and I don't think of myself as any higher of an individual than anyone I meet or come across. There's so much out there in the world to learn from and getting out into the world and experiencing that...is what I live to do. I wish to help people one at a time. However, the only person to help or change you is yourself. I think of myself as a guide for those who are at their last resort.

As for talking to others about my problems - I do. But I tend to express myself and my thoughts by other means than talking to someone I trust. I paint, draw, do photography, dance, read, write, and go for long walks in the woods just to be within my own thoughts and take in natures own beauty, which many of us take for granted. With those who come to me with problems and issues of their own - finding a way to escape what's clouded in our minds is a great way to release any burden. Being able to be alone and to have an outlet can make yourself better, but even loneliness takes a toll on us humans. For we are social creatures and need a certain amount of attention, communication.

I help by talking to people. Everyone needs someone who'll be willing to listen to their stories; good ones and more particularly the bad ones. I never have judged someone because of their lifestyle. With certain situations, we have no control over our lives. It's better to feel like you have at least ONE person to talk to than no one at all. Yeah - you can see a therapist, councilor, or psychologist - but that cost money (which most people don't have) but I believe having friends or just meeting a good person can change you. Along with having someone to talk to, comes the spark of similar experiences. It's best to know someone has gone through something similar because that one person could help you if you are currently struggling with something. That's how I see it. Some agree and some don't, but that's their choice to listen or not.

Are you asking about "helping" or the general "talking" and meeting new people?

Classy_Clarinet Report | 05/23/2013 8:24 am

Nope. Nothing I am accomplishing here. Just talking to people and helping them out with whatever and just meeting new people. That's pretty much it. I've been on here for about 7 years now and I'm still doing what I do. What about you? Anything you want to personally gain?

Classy_Clarinet Report | 05/22/2013 9:35 am

No, it's alright. I added you as a friend. smile Yeah - I have ran into many Gaians who wish to get as many "friends" as possible. However, I just tend to find Gaians to know them and support them in things they wish to accomplish.
