I like to emotionally vomit on people. And I like when people emotionally vomit on me. You can't just EV (emotionally vomit) on anyone you like. It has to be more in the hit and run fashion. You know, something like, the girl sitting next to you at Starbucks asks you "how are you today?" and you tell her that you hate your life, can't imagine it could get any worse then this, and then continue by sobbing. What? Isn't this how you make new friends? Then, as soon as she thinks you are certifiably insane, and possibly looks a little bored with your antics you make a clean break by getting up and storming off. Sounds normal to me.
Now, having someone EV on you is a different story. The situation I like this in is: someone that you don't know that well tells you how awful their life is. You agree that their life is, in fact, awful and this in turn makes you feel better that you are not in their situation. You leave the conversation feeling uplifted by the fact that you are not this sad sap. *Some caution on this one* When your friends tell you a tragic tale of your life a) this is not considering EV and b) you cannot feel elated by their misfortune because you love them (hopefully, otherwise see above)
