Topic: I get paid to listen, listening services (Read 284 times)

There are some people who prefer to talk with strangers about their problems rather than talking to the people who actually know them.
Besides, there are several cases that a stranger could even give a peaceful and accurate advise than your relatives and friends. (Actually I have been in this kind of situation before... A random girl crying then after that moment I never seen her again though I hope she was okay after telling me those problems that have been hurting her that time). In certain times, a stranger is also wanted by several people who wants to have space in life. (though I doubt if it will work in ONLINE like this).

It's really good for people to have comfort person where they can tell their doubts,worries and misery since it could save theirselves thru depression which we know that this is a silent killer if there's a people been affected to much on it, But I will not tell anything personal to a complete stranger since I don't want to get any huge problems in future, maybe I will prefer to talk to the person nearby since by this I can have a little assurance that I'm safe.

If I have no one to listen to my sob story I just pick up my recorder and record all my sad and disappointment, I don't trust strangers to have a genuine feeling to what I'm going to say, we never know if he is recording and blackmail us later if we share vital information about ourselves, don't trust strangers easily or you will be in danger.

That is why we need to choose the right person, and maybe we can share the secret with someone that close to us, so he/she can keep the secret. We cannot pick random people to tell our secret because that is too dangerous for us, and we don't want to see something terrible will happen to us.

Yes, I agree. We can share to GOD about our feeling, and HE will keep our secret and help us to solve every problem we have.

How do you intent to know if he/she can keep the secret, by telling people telling him/her their secret? Don't you know that some lives are bulid on their secret once the secret is revealed their lifes end as well.

The best friend anyone can have in sad moment is God.

There is nothing wrong if you will accept money since you are offering a service but at least it would be  fair if you let as “Donation or Tip” i think?so the genuinely of the friendship will remain?though i still believe that there i no friend that will be bonded by payment since we’re not obliged to listen everytime when friend needed us for as we have our own life and faces own problem also at some point.

But yeah this is your thread and service and we are only allowed to give advice and criticism but still you the client will decide if they will take your service or not.

Maybe someone wants to do that if he/she doesn't have someone that close to him/her.
It is hard to find a true friend who doesn't care about anything, just want to make a good friend. We can share the secret with him/her, but we need to make sure that he can keep that secret from the other people. He/she will be our best friend in the sad and happy moment, and he/she will always be on our side whenever we needed him/her.

well okay fair enough, as of now i accept hugs too
and by the way this is listening services not true friend services but still you could consider me a friend:p
i still believe its totally possible to take money from someone and still listen wholeheartedly to them.

i found the listening to my misery line funny. well, youre right in a sense.

ahah i see, people have different approaches to things. its just a matter of opinion.
listening in my world is an act. is listening an undervalued act amongst humans?
we all do things for waht we want. isnt that right?
for one person it could be money, for another something else like care maybe.
but the thing is when you focus and listen, youre actually making effort. and i think its just you who has the right to set the value of the effort they make on their part.
What is inappropriate about truly enjoying listening to other people and earning from it? I mean if its what you love to do and it doesnt hurt anyone...

who would?

A true friend would not ask for any material thing; I'm pretty sure a simple thank you and a warm hug would suffice and would be very much appreciated by those who listens.  
Having a "fee" for such a simple act would only give someone a notion that you are only doing it for the money and that you're not really there to listen to their problems wholeheartedly.

i mean i got this idea because i thought it was kinda cool and beautiful.
thats the thing, we see it as charghing someone as something maybe not appropriate.
But i sincerely believe its just an exchange, and its the opposite of not making trust. its actually building trust in a way, by trading with another human being and actually valuing it.
i mean even if its your friend alright, yeah he or she doesnt charge you through, but what if she or he would be appreciated for what they do by recieving something which has material value cuz at the end of the day material gets us through our lives. anyway, charging may not be so bad as it may seem to be, an exchange of values... just my 2c

lol. who would want to tell about problems to a complete stranger?

If I have someone to listen to my misery it would be my best friend whom I can trust to keep my secret and not charge me for listening to my misery, I don't entrust my feeling to someone who is not genuine in understanding what I feel, I will just fooling myself.

Is your partner cheating on you and theres no one that listens or cares about you and what has happened to you?
did your boss fire you and theres no one who truly cares and sets their judgement aside and just listen to what you have to say and your point of view?
are you afraid of aging and would like to talk to someone who cares and have them listen to what you have to say?

or are you a wanderer stuck inside your body trapped and just wish you could get out sometimes and youd like to talk to someone who understands, about it?

or do you want to talk about your financial problems , work stress  and everything,

do you wish there was someone you could curse and theyd feel your pain?

well, Im here to offer my listening services.

Alright, i believe listening has value, people pay huge amounts of money just to get out their advertisements.

im a real person here and i want to get paid to listen to you, about your work, your life anything youd like to talk about, or anything you want to show or say, whether its about money, emotional troubles, relationships or anything i will listen and i will truly care but i want it to be valued,  because i believe it has some value.

we often do not value the sympathy and care of the community we live in as much as we should and id like to see it get more value by making it a motivation to listen to each other. and money i believe is the gesture.
i just wish that we could see a day were listeners were also equally valued members of their community and were provided enough opportunities to grow to their full potential
I also accept refunds, Thankyou for your time.

edit:as of now hugs are accepted too, i wish there was something such as hugcoin that would be so cool
