Ohh this reflection is very accurate!! I'm afraid that people who have more developed empathy than normal identify with what you wrote. People usually just want you to listen to them and give them the reason, their reason. Other times they only seek compassion, to be the victims of what happens to them because that's how they are the centre of attention. Of course, we are talking about adults, not young people or children who still have to mature. Precisely for that reason each one must take charge of their problems, in that they are right, but as you say, if they share them with someone they must also be willing to listen to what they have to say to them. If it doesn't become a monologue that leaves you exhausted and without energy. I hope you and your friend find a balance point so that you both feel comfortable.
