    Sometimes people just want to talk about what they are going through. There’s nothing wrong with that. If they want help solving it, they will ask.

      Ok but getting upset if a solution is offered because “can’t you just listen to me‽”

      Is well beyond fair to whoever you have conscripted as your sounding board. At that point it’s not just venting about what you’re going through, it’s attacking them for daring to empathize in a way you didn’t tell them you didn’t want.
