I think a lot of problems could be avoided if you intro with, “Hey can I just vent a minute?” Otherwise you’re confusing your man. You’re asking for input and problem solving - only to ignore, (or worse) become bewildered as to our response.

Small talk. Venting. Asking questions. These are all distinctly different things. Just a prelude or heads up as to which one you are going with helps.

Thank you!!!
Here's how I avoid all confusion:

"Shit's about to fall out of my mouth, I don't need a solution, I just need you to say "yeah, fuck that guy!.'"

I mean bc really how often does anyone actually need advice? We mostly know what to do in a situation, we just wanna yap about it a bit and get some motivational "fuck yeah!'s
