Ever have one of those days when you just feel that you are totally useless. You can’t seem to do or say anything right? Well I’m having one of those today and it really sucks! Whatever I say and do just seems to make things worse. :( :( :( :(

Well, I'm here if you want to talk, I don't know how useful I can be though.

Then go one better and help the Panda (he obviously needs it) :D


Seriously though I get that feeling quite a bit, it really does suck, on top of that you feel so vunerable and weak..............:(

The fact that you care makes you a really nice person.....If you really were useless,you would never even think about it.

You are a neat person to know....it's time to introduce everybody to your fan club.........

But I want to be able to fix things and I can’t. I hate to see friends unhappy. I want to be able to make it right again. It sux! :( :( :(

I t's very noble to want to 'fix things' for your friends.....sadly the truth is that occasionally,when you try to help,your 'friends' just dump all of their troubles in your lap.I have learnt from bitter experience,that some people can get addicted to sympathy.When somebody comes to me now,I tell them that I look carefully at what they are saying,smpathise only if they deserve it,and then ask them what THEY intend to do about fixing the problem.The world is a big place,full of unhappy people.I wouldn't grind yourself down trying to fix it for them if they can't make the effort for themselves.




And I still think you are cute, so how about you smile?:D

You should talk to them. find out why they are unhappy.

And Mr T, I don’t really feel like smiling today. :(

Wow 14 posts into a thread that is all Kiwi's and we haven't gone off topic, :eek: :eek: :eek: :eek:


I don' plan on going OT and generally what darkness said is right, there are some you can help, however there are others that can be plain stubborn and don't want help, it has nothing to do with you being useless.

Like they say: you win some, you lose some

Be strong enough to tell this person that you're there for them to talk to, but know your limits. You can't be everything to everyone. It just doesn't work out that way. Sometimes just having someone to talk to can clear up their mind. Here's hoping...

You may feel useless, but that doesn't in any way shape or form make you useless. You have talked to the person and tried to help, a useless person would not have even gotten off of their ass to say hi.



Spec2 Girl is USEFULL.

tell yourself this repeatedly for 2 mins and pet one of the cats.:)

To a special friend...

Thankyou for all the times that you have made a difference.:)
Thankyou for all the times that you have tried to make a difference.
Thankyou for all the times when you wished you could make a difference.
Thankyou for all the times that you have known that you couldn't make a difference,but listened anyway.

Most of all,thank you for never ignoring the opportunity to make a difference.

And when it hurts because you can't always help.......

Now get a mirror, look at yourself in it... Woops, wouldn't want SNL sueing me.


Any how, I know how ya feal Spec 2, I have those days from time to time. Hell, we all have um every now and then. Just remember that by just listening you have already helped and the person you listened to will always remember that you listened to them when things wern't going so well. You will go down in their book as the good person you are and when it's all said and done, you have helped.
