Can I testify? I'm a great listene,r and I can say that boldly because I'm the secret keeper, the therapist, and the fixer even with strangers. Oftentimes, this kindness is taken for weakness, and people will go on and on. I'm too old for this crap now. You've just reminded me of two friendships I had where they went on and on about their problems and relationships. But when I wanted to talk, they didn't have time. So, now I don't have time.

Thank you, Michele. Great insight.
