I went to a techno party one night and while I was outside for some fresh air a guy came over, sat down and talked with me while he waited for his ride.

Just before he left he said I was a good listener and that I shouldn't let people take advantage of my kindness. This person had no idea the absolute shitshow my life was at that moment in time but managed to say all the things I didn't know I needed to hear.

Things are much better now but I still think about that moment every so often.
