And here is the reason. I think it is a stress releasing way to get your stuff out to (relative) strangers. All I am suggesting is listen and empathize. Often, I find that when I rant, for instance, to my sister, she wants to tell me why this situation may have happened and how I can deal with it and why it is my fault. Not helpful.
My current rant is re my property manager. After trying to deal w/ a significant problem here, I said I will no longer be having a verbal conversation about this, but will be emailing. Ok that happened, but she can barely write a sentence and cannot use the shift key to even capitalize "I". But at least I will have all the responses if I need to go further with this as in the property owners, or housing court
Thanks for listening. I would be glad to hear yours.!
