listening to womens problems

[princesimba]

Just a thought

How do you listen to a women you genuinely care about (say, just a platonic female friend) without becoming her emotional tampon?

What is the right way to do it so that the woman will end up liking you instead of thinking you're weak? We all know there are some awesome men out there who can listen to a girl talk about her problems but still turn it into something wonderful for them

She already has a tampon, she doesn't need another one. Tell her to shut up playfully, or kiss her to get her to stop talking.

Negative. Listening to her emotional problems is an expressway to Emotionaltamponville if you are not in an LTR with her. It's the reaction to the cause. Sure, you can win the lottery, but the odds are very against you. You will most likely lose your dollar. Save your dollar.

Yes just tell her talk to her girlfriends about that. Even if you don't like her. Or at least just change the subject. Make a loud buzzer sound like "BEHHHH Negative Talk Stops Now!" and talk about something else.
