A quote from Ralph Roughton--seems to make sense. Guys out there, you might benefit from this. Hehe:
"When I ask you to listen to me and you start giving advice, you have not done what I asked.
When I ask you to listen to me and you begin to tell me why I shouldn't feel that way, you are trampling on my feelings.
When I ask you to listen to me and you feel you have to do something to solve my problem, you have failed me, strange as that may seem. Listen! All I asked was that you listen, not talk or do - just hear me.
Perhaps that's why prayer works, sometimes, for some people -- because God is mute and he/she doesn't give advice or try to fix things. Sometimes it feels like someone is there to just listen and let you work it out for yourself."
