I'm "That Friend"

I'm not the person people go to when they want to have fun. (Unless your idea of fun is watching Hitchcock movies, trying to dance to "CATS," singing along to Broadway, or doing organic chemistry. Which fortunately is a few people's idea of fun, so I lucked out there.) I'm normally the friend you go to when you need to talk about something. Mostly your relationships.

I would be the last person I would go to for relationship advice. If you want relationship advice, go to someone that's actually been in a relationship. But most people looking for relationship advice don't want or need actual advice, they want someone to listen to them. And I listen really well. And I'm not many people's best friend or the one they tell everything, but I'm always the one that's there when you're feeling upset or depressed about yourself. I'm the one who builds up your self esteem and sense of empowerment and makes you feel like everything's going to be ok, really. I just inadvertently talked a friend I haven't seen for 8 months out of losing her virginity to a random guy because she was so depressed. 

I'm ok with being that friend.
