To trust or not to trust (Agony Aunts)

A new life is exciting, surely. A new city, new people, new environment. And with it comes in a whole lot of anxiety and apprehension. Last nite, was the first for me in the city called Mumbai. So it meant that beauty sleep kept evading me till quite late into the night. That is when I decided to tune into the countless FM radio stations (as against a single FM and the good ol' AIR in Pune).
The song on one of the stations soon gave way to a soothing male voice (it was a bit too soothing, almost like the poor guy had been threatened to be sued if he raised his voice even a pitch higher). The RJ who called himself some Love Guru or Love Doctor or some crap like that, was conversing with a caller. The caller was saying how his girlfriend wasn't talking to him for the past three months.
As I heard the conversation, I thought to myself...How could someone actually call up a Radio Jockey to discuss his love life. What is wrong with these people? It's one thing for the RJ to claim he is some Agony Uncle and another for people to actually believe it and seek his advice.
I find it difficult to understand such people who actually call in on these helplines from radio stations or write in to newspapers. It's so simple to understand that they are totally frivolous. I mean how can someone who I have never ever have even seen in my life, counsell me for my predicament.
I had a colleague once who used to run one of these Agony Aunts columns in a leading Mumbai daily. She had mentioned that people even wrote in saying that they are contemplating on committing suicide. It is quite possible that the person might actually just be doing it because he or she is pretty jobless at that point and just wants to have some fun.
But then chances are also that someone is so frustarted that they are actually resorting to such means.
Well...I will never be able to relate to the psyche of such people though I would love to meet some whackos like these.
