Question

Rollingstones84 · Accepted Answer

Yea, I would say I am. Whether it's to help by answering questions they may have, or just to talk if they're having a down day. This type of communication doesn't require a degree

To the people who matter, I am ALWAYS accessible!

ObscuredBeyond · Answer

That wording at the end..."elevate myself" , is sus. Elevate as in improve in character, or elevate as in self-exalt? Because the latter sounds like arrogance in denial. And usually doesn't end well.

Accessible as in available to help them, or available for contact? Or emotionally available? I'm so lost here.

If I care enough about someone, I make time. But at the same time, I keep anyone who's a stranger at arm's length. And further if they make themselves seem less trustworthy.

Taking a date to a movie, for example, is the only time I enjoy it more than going alone. I've rarely ever had a posse to which I felt I belonged. Without that large social band, everything has always been about what I can enjoy alone or with a date. Family outings are okay occasionally too. But outside that, I've leaned to anticipate being lonely, so I try to make the most of it.

For most parts, yes I am to family and friends within my capacity. There are times where I can not drop everything I've in my hands for someone else's needs.

At work - there that is a part of my job description.

Boundaries. We must learn them early, and use them well. Every relationship, healthy and ESPECIALLY unhealthy needs them. Everyone may NEED us, doesn’t mean we NEED to be there constantly for all.

If the relationship is draining me from the resources I must give myself, I ask myself 2 things, is this an essential relationship or non-essential (e. g. am I a caregiver or acquaintance to this individual) If it’s the former, I enlist help to support me because I must take care of myself as this person depends on me. If it’s the latter, I communicate that I’m unavailable at the moment, but would touch base once I am again. Remind them once. Cut it off if off if they can’t listen.

ChiTown33 · Answer

Depends what is meant by accessible. I think my friends and family know I'll always have thier back and will drop what I'm doing if they need my help.

But everyone? All the time? No. I'm only one man. But I will still do what can when I can. Because God blesses us with the ability to help eachother. I will always try to do God's will.

msc545 · Answer

An important part of my work involves being accessible for emergencies. However , I also have to sleep and like everyone, I need down time, so I have arrangements with colleagues to cover for me (and I for them) some of the time. It works out well.

boobliker · Answer

That's fine, but don't let your best hunting years pass you by or you could be a spinster, as you look a fine shape in your photo? enjoy your life and live-it if you can!

andreasderjuengere · Answer

Accessible: yes Which does not mean that I automatically have to (or will) comply with each and every ''request''. Why: my options are limited; and I also need to be accessible towards my OWN 'needs'.

AviatorTom · Answer

Yes, I'm easy to get in touch with, but not necessarily immediately. I only answer my phone if it's a number I recognize and I don't always have my phone on me.

RavVid · Answer

Mostly I am because I do like helping people.

Bklynbadboy12 · Answer

exitseven · Answer

I am accessible to my wife and kids and some friends.

DiegoO · Answer

I use to, at least online. In RL I was never that approachable. As time passed by I realize my time is also precious, online.

the_sinner · Answer

No because even if I’m free I make sure that the other person needs me urgently otherwise it might become a habit for people to just use me for their benefit.

andy530 · Answer

Most of the time yea but it’s something I have to be careful with

Jerre · Answer

I am easily accessible to just about anyone, especially you!

justabuddy · Answer

For the most part, I'm a bit of a loner so my definition of accessible might be different.

TooHot2Care · Answer

For one I don't use words like : "Access to me." that is genuinely weird, I mean what am I? A corporation building?

SnowedIn · Answer

For the most part yes.
