When someone moves into your emotional space like it’s rent-free real estate, dumps all their unresolved childhood trauma in your living room, pisses on your peace, and calls it “being vulnerable.”
They expect full-time emotional labor, sympathy on demand, and spiritual room service — while giving absolutely nothing back.
You’re not a therapist, not their mom, not a fucking Airbnb for broken people. But somehow you ended up hosting their mental meltdown with a smile.

Every time Jenna breaks up with Kyle, she calls me crying at 2 a.m. like I’m her therapist. Bro, that’s emotional squatting.

When your best friend Violet tells you her friend Grace has a crush (it's a vague version of butterflies in the stomach), but doesn't spill the tea.
Spill the tea, Vi!
Spill the tea, Vi!
Totally random person I totally do not know: Grace is having a crisis, and I was not helpful at all.
Definitely not me: What?
Totally random person I totally do not know: She has emotions in the stomach.
Definitely not me: She has a crush?
Totally random person I totally do not know: Yes.
This is definitely not me. I'm not salty.

A person being strung along by their ex for emotional support while their ex hooks up with other people all while they're hoping for another chance!
Hey look at Jerry. Poor guy. His ex is using him as an emotional support donkey while she gets it on with Carl.
