And we are on in 5,4,3, (2,1) ---->"Good morning, and welcome back to another episode of Esra's empathy couch. Today we would like to talk about mistakes and other things that have happened in your relationship.
I have been through 3 major relationships in 6 year. There have been so many good times. But I can't seem to remember them. When I look back on the last 6 years of my life, I remember crying at 4 a.m., or chatting on msn to strangers who told me to stay away from my bf. I can recall the night we danced at the club, the drama and emotions and when our ways parted.
If you have something you want to talk about, or a message to send to a dear one, or just anything you want to get off your chest, call in-oh wait looks like we have our first caller of the day.
And a very good morning to you, caller 1. What is your name?
Mr K...."
Mr K turned to me for advice.We talked for 151 minutes. Across continents.
He wasn't my first guest of the week though. I also had a confrontational discussion with a young lady in Delhi.A person who does not discuss but seeks to think over her situations in life-and sometimes she even thinks aloud. Which gave me an opportunity to do what comes naturally to me-empathise.
Following two segments on the couch, I received a surprise call-in this morning. Mr B and I had a few encounters prior to this one. But they all seemed meaningless. Today he called to really talk to me.
I do think that I have a sign on my forehead which reads: 'We Don't have to talk', which in my understanding raises curiosity and gets people talking more than: 'You can TALK TO ME'.
Get it?
So basically in all this confusion in my head, I just want to say: Welcome to Esra's empathy couch. We don't have to talk. we can do whatever you like. But we should do it together.
It really works.
