a brief inquiry into online relationships

What I want to say: I’m really interested in what you are saying. As my friend, I support you. I want you to know I am still here, still listening, and still enjoying what we are sharing together. However as this is a topic I myself have no experience with, or little to say or offer, I’m unable to produce much in the way of input from my side. However trust that I still adore listening to you!

Friend: Says something

What I want to say: I love being your friend and listening to you talk about something you love so passionately even though I understand zero of it and I’m getting lost and the more I try to listen the more my thoughts wander but I still want to listen to you because you’re a friend and a great person and I love listening to you. I am interested because you’re interested, please keep going as much as you want.
