Listen. Don't just hear me.

For many years I like to keep my feelings inside because it seems like no matter who I talk to, they don't seem to  be really listening or understand or really care. If you're going to ask me what's wrong and act like you want to hear about my problems then do it all the way. Don't start listening and then tune out half way. It makes me feel self conscious, like I'm wasting your time. It also hurts my feelings a bit because I've decided to open up about my issues and now you don't care to hear me out. So if you're going to listen, Listen don't just hear.
