Even when you tell someone exactly how you feel, do you have a hard time being heard?

So much yes, it's not even funny.

Most times it gets turned into a competition I find. So I just stop telling the person and listen to them tell me how they feel.

@amk22 Honestly I hope nobody is going through what I am. But I mean even before all this as well though. I've always found it hard to find someone who was just willing to listen, so it has become harder for me to talk about that kind of thing.

@gmatthewb I hope you feel understood by at least one person!

@amk22 I really don't think about it much any more. I don't tell anyone about most of how I feel or what is going on. I try to cheer others up, not bring them down 🙂

I believe that’s called selective hearing.

People don't want to hear it.

They hear but they either won't accept it or can't understand it.

Not anymore, that's how I felt with my ex husband.

Depends on who I’m telling.
