If I tell you something, would you please just listen to what I have to say?
Please don't judge or stereotype what I am telling you. I'm sure that your friend so-and-so couldn't have gone through the exact same situation and felt exactly the same as I do about it.
Please don't try and solve my problems. If I wanted to know what you would do in my situation, I'd ask you.
Please don't interupt me to tell me lengthy analogies of situations that you have gone through that somehow relate to what I'm telling you. I don't like feeling vulnerable so it probably took me a lot of courage to tell you what I'm thinking and feeling. Interrupting me to tell stories of how you think I am feeling doesn't help.
