This brought such peace to my mind. I’ve always been labelled as selfish if I’ve been unable to offer my listening ear or open up my home at all hours. I’m accepting the fact that some people are not mature enough to have that honest conversation with so I will leave that judgment with them. Our time and mental space is sacred. We can’t fill others cups if our own is empty!
I felt this, I don’t hold any resentment to any of the people that come to mind when reading this. That’s because I’m aware that I am the listener, the advice giver, the supporter. I know that I will always give and never expect in return. I can’t. In my mind no one should have to listen to my issues and problems. Or be there for me to vent. I have spent so much time in my masculine energy I don’t know how not to be this.
I also do not feel sorry for myself one bit. I could be more assertive. It’s the position Allah (SWT) has given me, so weather I’m comfortable or not, I decide I will learn what I can.

How come they're not expected reciprocate?
No one should have to listen, I agree, what if they want to?
I’ve learnt it’s better not to expect, than to expect and be Disappointed/let down.
I don’t believe people want to listen. Maybe it’s my problem 🤷🏼♀️. ❤️
