Mates coming to you for support
|
|
All my WhatsApp is from people saying they’re struggling, need a chat, or are going through a really shit time. It’s been like that for much of lockdown and I’ve been struggling to keep going myself I’m so busy working so have little energy to help my mates. Much to my regret.
Do other people get this ? I don’t know if it’s unique to my strange pals.
Apologies if this a bit poncy, it’s something I struggle with and wonder if anyone’s found the same of lockdown

If it's of any help, listening, if you really listen, actually gives energy rather than taking it away.
All you have to do is find some time and a place to do it.

Always find time for your mates no matter how busy you are. There are 24hours in a day. Think how difficult for most blokes to send that text ! Normally it means it’s important and you’re saying you don’t have time.

My generation don't tend to ask each other advice on emotional or personal problems.
A good example is I was best man at my mates wedding, 30 years back. A year to the day later he called me and asked what I was up to that evening. Knowing it was his 1st anniversary I joked "Why, has Emma left you"?
"Yeah", was his reply. He never spoke of her again and I never asked.
I think it's great that younger generations are changing this anal attitude As Beatie used to say, "it's good to talk".

I miss the pub and going cricket, but other than that I'm a massive fan of lockdown and not having to go to the office.
Probably similar with my mates. Miss the laughs had with pals, but don't think any of them are struggling as such.
All in our 40's, so as said a generation who aren't overly mincey and woke.

Is there someone universally recognised as not bat shit mental that we can compare ourselves with?
I don’t think I’m doing too badly as I’ve always maintained that I’m far too shallow to suffer from mental illness.
It’s what deep thinkers seem to suffer from.
I’m more of a oh, the sun’s out, that’s nice, ooh look, a bird type of person.

Your mates are clearly homosexuals. It's the only possible explanation.

Looks like it’s just me. Most of my mates are a bit radio to be fair
