Listening takes time, patience, caring about the other person, not being selfish, and doing whatever you can by helping in any way possible. Listening is a key ingredient in any relationship. If both of you are talking and neither is listening, then neither of you knows how the other is feeling. Listening is like a book: if you don't pay attention, you might miss a great story. Hearing is one of the best things that you could possibly do to strengthen your relationships, build your character and reputation, and help others to know someone cares. There are times you may be the only person in someone's life who actually listens to them, and maybe when you need someone to listen to you, they will be there for you.Friday, November 16, 2012

I completely agree that listening is a key point to relationships. I also agree that you may be the only one listening to someone and they may really need somone there to just listen. I know ive been in situations where people dont listen to me. Have u ever had that happen to you?

I think that everyone should read this because it seems that no one ever takes time to smell the roses, let alone listen to someone that needs an ear. Just listening to a person vent can make a huge difference in their life. Sometimes, listening can be the only way to show someone that they have someone who cares. I know that from personal experience from both ends of the spectrum. I have both talked and listened. I can tell you that being a friend for someone can give the best kind of feeling.
ReplyDeleteI hate feeling like noone is listening to me so i always listen to my friends. I just hope i can give good advice.
ReplyDeletethank you for saying that kaitlyn:)i thhink sometimes we do take people for granteed and that we should try to listen or ask people sometimes at random hpw they are doing just to let them know you care and that your there for them!
ReplyDeletethank you highschoolers777:) yes i think by just letting poeple vent to you can help out the person talking but also the person listening to but then you can get into a strong/stronger relationship, or even a new friend! yes being somebodys friend can be one of the best feeling because its lets them know you care and that somebody is there for them whenever you need it.
ReplyDeleteyes i know how you feel randompanda because i had that nobody was there for me when i needed it the most and it does hurt, but if you keep tryng maybe someday they will relieze that you need somebody to listen to you instead of the other way around. good luck!:)
