I feel that I’m only useful.

dude, seriously??? you’re complaining about people actually wanting to be around you and talk to you??!!! 😉 like, hello, isn’t that what we’re all looking for??? you’ve got a girlfriend who vents, so what??? maybe just listen and be glad she’s even sharing with you. ever considered how tiring it is for people to not have anyone to vent to at all??!!! and the friends??!! maybe if you tried to go deeper, they’d be open to it!!!! and really, what's up with the whole “everyone's paid to talk to me” shtick??!! sounds like you're just whining about life, man. instead of seeing it as a burden, how about being grateful you've got anyone talking to you at all, cause man, being ignored is way worse, i can tell you that from experience. maybe, just maybe… flip that perspective, alright??

it's really tough feeling like you're only valued for what you provide rather than who you are. sometimes it can feel like we're just a tool to others; i wonder though, have you tried opening up to your girlfriend about how you feel? 🧐 i've been in a similar spot, and honestly, it's mentally exhausting. the whole situation with friends can be tricky too. it's like you're constantly playing a role without being truly seen. i've found that when i tried to break the ice and dive into deeper topics, there can be resistance, but also surprising connection. it's okay to want more from your relationships. keep pushing for what you need. you deserve it. 🙌🏻

man, i feel ya!!!! totally hear you on how exhausting it is feeling like you only have value because people need something from ya; it happens way too often when all you want is just to be truly seen, right? like, when your girlfriend's always venting, it can be tough to feel like there's room for anything else in the convo!!! "all we are is just another brick in the wall," right? 😉 ever feel like you're just kind of filling roles for people instead of being appreciated for everything you bring to the table? reminds me of when i had a mate who only called up when he needed a favor, and i’d be left wondering if he even knew a thing about my life!!! sometimes, we just need someone to ask about our day, without an agenda, you know?!!!!!!

i get where you're coming from, but maybe you're overthinking this a bit 🤔. interactions are often transactional, and that’s just reality. “you don't know what you’ve got until it’s gone” comes to mind, you know? venting is part of relationships, so maybe try to appreciate the trust your girlfriend has in you. as for friends, if you're stuck on surface-level humor, perhaps you’re not initiating deeper dialogues. my perspective's pretty clear: instead of solely wanting to be "seen," why don't you attempt to see others first? maybe it’s time to reevaluate the dynamics you're engaging in. 🤷‍♂️

hey, i get that you're feeling overwhelmed, but maybe it’s just part of being in social dynamics. feeling like people mainly engage with you for what you offer might be common, but isn't that how a lot of interactions work? people naturally gravitate towards those who provide value, so maybe look at it as a compliment. with your girlfriend, isn't it possible she's showing trust by sharing her venting with you; like, have you asked her what she values about your relationship beyond just listening? 🤔 as for your friends, isn't it up to you to try steering conversations into deeper territory if that's what you're looking for? perhaps instead of focusing on how others perceive you, try redefining what you want from each interaction and go from there. thinking about it this way might offer a different perspective.

it's understandable to feel this way, like you're just a utility for others, especially when interactions seem solely transactional. you want to truly connect with people and not just serve a purpose, which is valid. there's a thin line, though—sometimes being a good listener is part of being in a relationship. you feel like your conversations with your girlfriend are too one-sided, but have you considered discussing a more balanced way to communicate; genuine friendships can, indeed, involve deeper discussions, though it may require taking the first step toward vulnerability. i get why feeling like everyone is just “paid” to engage with you is frustrating, but doesn’t this give you a chance to seek new ways to connect with others? keep looking for those genuine connections; they are invaluable.

yikes, i totally get where you're coming from 😕. it seriously sucks feeling like everyone's just there because they get something out of it. makes you wonder if anyone actually cares about you as a person. honestly, your situation sounds rough, especially with your girlfriend only venting to you all the time; it's like, can't we just have a normal conversation for once? reminds me of when i had a 'friend' who only talked to me when they needed someone to complain to. "is this all i am to you?" i asked myself. you’re right to feel exhausted with all these surface-level connections. have you tried telling your friends you'd like more meaningful talks? sometimes they just need to know you’re open to it. keep searching for those genuine interactions—you deserve them. 💪
