shitty air
I don't think a lot of people to want to be "vented" to, because it's exhausting to talk with someone only whenever they have problems. In fact, I'm personally not going to be doing it for a long time. That is, I don't want to sit there while someone conquers the conversation and tells me their problems for what feels like hours on end. This is not a healthy friendship of any sort. If people need to vent on a regular basis then they should get a hobby or a therapist that will soak up the negativity. I wouldn't expect my friends or significant other to sit around while I tell them hours worth of negativity. This is because most times this doesn't come across as "do you like/understand me?" Instead it comes across as a vent, like the vent for the shitty air coming out of the bathroom. Friends are not to be constantly poured shitty air into.
