My mom has never understood this so I can never talk to her about anything. She always wants to solve the problem. Sometimes I just wanna vent about my day. I tend to go to my dad since he actually listens.

I try to do both. I actively listen but I also feel that when my perspective could offer some insight, that I should give it up and try to make the situation better. Nothing wrong with trying to solve problems sometimes.

Yeah

I guess it’s case by case what people want but if I explain a problem to someone it’s because I’m interested in what they think my best course of action is. Sometimes it’s pointless because there is no solution. In those situations I tell my dog who usually suggests I give her some treats to help get my mind off my woes.

I totally agree. I'm more than happy to take that kind of advice from friends etc. I know my mom means well. But my mom has a completely different lifestyle than I do so she tells me things that she'd do when it has almost nothing to do with the issues I vent about. Just listening is enough.
