I used to want them to be more active, but now I mostly want them to shut up and only give me advice when I ask for it.

Yeah, I've seen a bunch of them too. Some good, many bad and a few totally life changing.
I'm single though and sometimes I think I'm using the T to replace the kind of intimate narrative sharing that people do with their significant others. Sigh.
I also want my T to mostly shut up, especially in light of the clueless behavior of the last couple of weeks. I need the time and the space to talk things out, and I'm willing to pay for it. Where's the harm in that?
