What would you think after receiving this message?!


Question: You work with a very shy, soft-spoken girl. Yesterday she opened up her frustrations on a few things - probably the first time she TRULY expressed herself and opened up. Today she was shy again. She sent you a text message after work to thank you for listening to her yesterday. She said she didn't expect herself to say so much and said she feels bad for letting it all pour out onto you.

I would think that she is feeling embarrassed, and surprised at her own actions. She may be feeling vulnerable that another person at work would "know her" so well, and yet for the same reasons she may now feel "closer" to you than anyone else there.

I would respond to her message with an acknowledgment and a bit of reassurance such as. "You're OK by me"

That she let herself show how she was feeling and now feels bad about it.

She's not used to opening up and feels insecure about what she said. I wouldn't worry about it, just say 'you're welcome'.

I would believe that i had befriended someone and that they appreciated it .....

She is embarrassed and doesn't know how to react.

You should take it as a compliment actually. Tell her she shouldn't feel bad for that at all, and that you're glad to be there for her.

She trusts you enough to open up to you, and that means a lot.

obviously you are a trust worthy person and you must really be nice because , shy people don't open up very easily. That is exciting that she will let you in , you may be the only person that ever listens to her. that is special

I wouldn't really think anything. She vented her frustrations and feels a bit surprised at what she said.
That's about it.

Why would you feed anything else into it other than what she said! I'd take as a complement for being a good listener.

Text back saying shes welcome and anytime!

Shes obviosuly opened up to you because she trusts you.
Let her know that you are her friend because she is probably shy because of her insecurities so all you can do is let her know youll be there for her.

Anyway shell grow out of her shell and look back at how shy she was one day so dont think about it too much :)

mainly there are six ways of taking out anger and the anger style she has is bottle and blast. From the name you can tell what it means. It means the person will bottle it up inside until they can't take it anymore then they will blast. When she express to you like that, it means that she is totally comfortable with talking to you and speaking to you and telling you stuff. That text meant that you are a good listener who is willing to listen to her problems and stories XD

The poor kid's pain and anguish is alleviated thanks to you... I would be happy. I am sure she is very insecure about her outburst, so I would do all that you can to make it clear that it was a good thing, not a bad thing.

i would be glad that she trusts me i would think that she is a nice person who just needed to talk and have someone listen and i would text back it was no big deal i liked listening it was intresting and im glad it helped u
