active listening

A way of showing that one is listening to a person who is talking to them by rewording what the other person just said and repeating it back to them. This is supposed to validate the person you are listening to and rephrasing, according to some schools of thought in psychology.

Patient: Yes, I'm going to do it NOW.
Therapist: You want to do it now.
Patient: *Jumps out window.*
Therapist: Woosh. Splat.

Good listener

Someone who is really good at listening to other and helping with problems and giving advice, but can also show signs of loneliness and fake happiness. These people need to be listened to as well.

I am a good listener but feel as though no one listens to me.
