+423 There's always that one person that everyone confides in and helps everyone deal with their problems. But you have to wonder, who do they go to, amirite?

Darn, beat me to it.

Indeed, i am that one person, but i don't like other people to concern themselves with my problems.

My friend is like that, and she just confides in me

the other people out there that help people with their problems?

That person is me. And i usually just confide in my journal or something. Everyone trusts me to keep their secrets and give them good advice but I feel like I cant trust them in return.

We don't usually confide in anyone. Because most of the time when we do confide in someone that person tells other people those secrets.

I'm the dr.phil of my group of friends. I help with all the relationship problems, I give the best advice I can, and i'm always the shoulder to cry on. Sometimes I like being the person everyone trusts with their issues, but a lot o the time I wonder if they just assume I don't have my own problems to work out. I don't come to anyone with my problems. I take long showers and talk to my dog.

I'm that person with all the great advice. I had no one to go to, so I had to learn off of common sense and what i thought was best for me. I had to learn everything on my own- the hard way. Thats where all my good advice comes from, i guess.

That's me. I go to my mom

i was that person for a really long time, and then i had a breakdown of sorts. it was really bad. and i still am, but now i just run a lot.

That's me too, and like most of the other posters, I sorta rely on myself. But it was sorta weird to see that so many others feel like I do. Is it possible that everyone feels like that?

That person usually has common sense, and realizes their problems are no big deal compared to some people's. We need more of these people.

bottle it up, snap and go on a killing spree

That's definitely me. I used to bottle it up and go completely nuts. Then, I met my friend Katie, who is the "therapist" of a different group of friends. We tell each other our problems.

thats me and sadly most of us don't have someone to confide in. i have someone i trust enough to go to but being the one everyone confides in usually means we have very little trust in others.

I truly empathize with you all. Basically, we find an outlet. If you're in my situation, there's no final person to confide to, because you have to hold literally everyone up. And when someone seems open enough for you to tell, it's difficult to because you either a.) hate complaining because you hear others do it so much or b.) cannot get yourself to release all of that emotion at once without opening such a floodgate that your afraid of what might come next. And it sucks.

I would be that person. I go to no one because I can't. And when I do try to get help from the ones I help it ends back to them. Whatever though. That's life.

i feel like this is one big confession chain. people who are the "shoulder to cry on" in their groups of friends have some common qualities amongst themselves, it seems.

Because I tend to become that person. People often expect you to be that somebody who can be there for them to cry to, to be a strength when their own fails them. Their feelings are supposed to be a priority to you. But what about my feelings? Who do I turn to when I need the same thing? Will they be there for me like I am for them?
