A potential improvement to the 7 Cups website!

...See more The 7 Cups website is wonderful, and the new feature allowing potential listeners to view the topic of concern to the distressed person (e.g. depression, anxiety, breakups, bullying) has been extremely helpful! I no longer need to refer general requests to listeners who are more experienced in certain fields than I, because I take on requests specific to my experiences and expertise. One feature that I think would be very helpful is an indication of the rough amount of time the anonymous person wants to talk for. Conversations I have had range from 15 minutes to nearly 3 hours. Every now and then, I have about half an hour or an hour handy but I don't take any requests because I'm not clear on how long it would take to talk to them, and its hard to set limits when a person is distressed. It would also be troublesome to have to refer the person elsewhere if I had to leave in between. Perhaps the administrators could consider incorporating an option for the anonymous person to choose (alongside the topic of discussion) with the options of: 15 mins or less, 15 to 30 mins, 30 to 45 mins, 45 mins to 1 hour, 1 hour to 2 hours, or not sure etc. to ensure that the listener has some idea of how long to invest in the conversation. This would be a major help! Thank you!! :)

Feedback & Reviews
good listener and offered good, thoughtful perspective.
She very honestly and truthful
Intuitive and thoughtful, they were there most importantly.
Pleasant and polite, unassuming and genuine, a great listener and advisor.
Excellent! Very kind.
Listened when they needed to, asked questions to further their understanding and to allow you to vent more. Was very active during the chat and I didn't feel pressured to share things I didn't want to share.
He was very compassionate, and I felt at ease while sharing some of my issues with him.

Thanks for your time!
It was wonderful talking to him, i was worried about a lot of things and he made me feel at home, i am sure a few more sessions with him and i would be out of misery, thank you Arjun !
