нєℓℓσ яєα∂єя(ѕ). Here to help / support when needed / wanted. Sometimes all we need is to be listened to. and it is not really a shameful thing to ask for it. It is saddening that this is not available to everyone in Real-Life. This is what this Place is made for;whenever you need someone to listen. I am glad if you're willing to speak out your struggles / problems and getting help for them.

---(Your possible questions and thier answers are in the last section bellow.)---

------(What you have read so far is enough.. the rest is optional.)-------

Oh wait.. in 'Normal' inroductions you should say names and all that right..? My mistake."😂"

[First things first; Greeting and i̸n̸t̸r̸o̸ essential listener info*.]

Second things secound; Introduction(?):-

Alright then. I am usually known around here as Snow[That's obviously from the User-Name.].. the English name I have given to myself for this place is Logan if you prefer.. you can call me something else if you want to. As it seems, I am not considered quite an open person nor have a good sense of humour I guess. I still try my best to support / help.

Okay that was probably the worst introduction ever to exist. I need to think this over for some more time.

~(Few weeks later...)~.[Actually.. that's true. I left this section for weeks..(':]

Hello again.. strangely you're still reading this but okay, there we go..!

Greetings to everyone reading this. I am a Listener in this place.. and I dictate some time to listen to others stories or shares when they need / want. Usually people tend to refer me here as Snow.. also can be referred as Logan; which is an English name I chose for myself to make it more comfortable for most people here when speaking to me. I am 19 Years-Old, out-of-work teacher and a university student. I always try to be courteous, apporiate and improve my listening. Probably now as you can see.. I am terrible at introducing myself.. so now you know one thing about this being right here. "What do you like to do..?"[Questions seems to be really help regarding this issue.] Some Hobbies I think. "Which are..?" Reading for one.. Music is great too, other things as well. "Favourite Colour / Color..?" All colours sound fine.. every single one of them can give some beauty to an object. How about a Rainbow..? "Which time of the day is your favourite..?" Why is it hard to favourite things..?:')[At least that's for me.]I notice that I wake up at dawn a lot if I get to sleep. So I guess Dawn.. and Evenfall seems awesome too. "Favourite Music..?" All types are good.. it depends in it's lyrics in it and the meaning for me if it's not instrumental. "What made you volunteer as a Listener..?" I was asked a similar question to this in one of my Listener tests.. but it doesn't seem my answer is considered as 'Right' though I was told to be honest.. so I guess I am never passing this.[Or probably there's some sort of a glitch.] A little of what I said is that I was I wanted to be helpful. Also as a Member here, I wanted to see how's this is from a Listener's perspective. and it's great to be part of this community. Even though I wasn't helped myself but it's not their fault. You made a really great place for people here to connect with each other and it's a pleasure to allow me to have the chance to be part of this so Thank-you. "How would you describe yourself in a sentence..?" Well.. An indecisive being who is trying to be more social.(?)(': I guess this is all for now.. sorry for any disappointments.

------------------------------

Third things third; Additional information:-

☆About Categories: I don't really have any specific category I can consider myself better at.. even if I had Life-Experience with some of them.. I don't think that really makes me a master in those topics. All(Almost, it depends) of them are welcome in my PMs.

☆About schedule / times when I am active: I don't really have a specific time.. often it's somewhere between 07:00A.M and 09:00A.M(GMT.).. I may come here at random times too.

☆About Reviews and Ratings: They're not forced upon you to do.. you can leave one if you want. You can point out things that are fixable or can be improved. All types are welcome.. I am still learning.(:

☆About weekends: In Home-Town the weekend is Friday and Saturday..[In some Work-Places, Schools, universties Saturday may be cancelled. Mine is one.] unlike many other countries which has it Saturday and Sunday. Nevertheless / Although that doesn't necessarily mean that I'll be active on these days.

☆About how many languages the Listener can speak: The languages that I speak is English and Arabic.. my typing speed is faster in English actually. I still learn other languages.. although I don't think I am fluent enough in them yet to the level that I have the ability to fully understand the expressions, lines, and whatnot in those languages, and respond to them in a timely manner.

-I speak the Official / Standard Arabic well.. but I have trouble with understanding some Arab Dialects.

☆About the usage of Caps / Capitalised Letters: I understand that some use as an outlet for thier frustrations or to express excitement or astonishment. I allow them in my PMs.[It is preferred to not use them in the Group-Rooms though.]

☆About Crises: I can't really help from here if you're planning to and attentionally putting yourself in crisis.. sorry. Here is a link for Crisis-Resources in countries who officially has them:

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_suicide_crisis_lines . Hope your country is listed. If not, try to call someone you trust if possible. Keep yourself safe and distract by putting your attention in something else.

Texting Service if it works: Imalive.org . Many here found this helpful and I hope does for you too.

☆About the Listener's Origins: Okay.. now I just want to say that if you con hatred for that or have some sort an embranchment of xenophobia like 'Arabiophobia'[I actually made this up.. it seems this sort of thing exist honestly.] or 'Libyophobia'.. okay I am taking this too far.(': The main concept of this is I want to say if you feel any inconvenience or uncomfortable because of this.. You can go to Browse Listeners page (www.7cups.com/BrowseListeners/ .) use the filters if you want.. and I hope the next Listener would be better for you. No need to create unnecessary conflicts or criticism. Problem solved..![*Case Closed*."😂"]

---------------------

Fourth things fourth, the Listener usual style of Listening, "Colours" of Activity / Availability, Roles & Relations:-

Listening Style:-

1-I usually take General-Requests(In a  Member's perspective: It's when you press 'Connect Now' you'd then make a new 'Request'. Listeners call that a 'General Request'). when I assure I would have Internet on and no work to do for at least an 30mins to an hour and change my activity to 'Busy'. If there was no response for about 5-10mins.. I make sure if the Member is still there and if there's no response I tell that they can always respond later. May then take another Request.

2-I don't take more then one request.. if I do, it's like you're speaking to multiple people in Real-Life talking about their problems in the same time and that seems uncaring and it limits one's concentration.

3-Know that I am here to listen.. but I wouldn't really know how to solve your problems.. even if I had experience; yours may differ.. so you knowledge your situation much better then myself. You're the one who can change your future.. I wouldn't force you to make specific choices. I can't make a miracle happen and make all these problems / struggles dissipate. Think them over and you may find the answer.

4-I do Check-Ins after about a week to a fortnight after the last chat with Members. Sometimes after few days.. it can depend. If I am not around here for long..[Ex. For weeks.] I won't.. maybe after I come back if requested.

Colours of Activity(That alighted circle beside the Profile-Picture.):

1-Green('On-Line'): I am taking new Chats / Personal-Requests. Would usually respond instantly or in a few minutes as a max.

2-Orange('Busy'): I am now busy with another chat or something else in Real-Life or somewhere around the Site / App. Probably would respond after 10-30mins if I am still in here.

3-Red('Off-Line'): I am not in the Site / App currently.. I usually wouldn't set it if I am still around here. I'll respond as soon as possible when I come back.

Roles:

I don't have any roles here nor planning to take ones so far.

Relations:-

I don't have Listener Twins, Mentors or Besties.. I would probably do Shout-outs for some here but I think that would take permission and would be creepy.:')

Shout-out for all Listeners! Welcome to 7-Cups if you're new. Thank-You for joining and lending an ear for others and your efforts and dictation. Don't forget to take breaks when needed.

Shout-out to all Members! Welcome to 7-Cups if you're new. It can hard to request for help[At least for many people.] I am glad you're considering it.. I hope you find a Listener that is fit for you.^^

Fifth things fifth, Other Matters:

---------------------

Some Tips for other Listeners:

1-Many might worry when they find that their Members were gone suddengly. It's okay.. it happens. If you want to check if they're still there.. type down 'www.7cups.com/@' and type down your Member's User-Name(Including the numbers if there was any.) ahead of the '@'. Actually? this way can also be used by Members too to check thier Listeners. Eitherways, always try to ne respectful of another's space.

2-If you're having your first chats.. it may be hard at first but you'll sure going to handle it eventually.. try to read some information in the topic before taking a request regarding it if possible.. it is helpful especially when you don't have experience.

3-I suggest to search and read more about Listening.

4-You don't have to be.. as it is said; 'Robotic' add some of your speaking style too.^
