There is a balance. People don't want to hear nothing but troubles but they will listen to troubles when it is equally balanced with positives in their life or at least a positive way of looking at things. Being around someone who is constantly negative & talks only about their troubles brings everyone down to their level & most people can only take so much of being around that.
That was what my life was like before I left (moved 2100 miles away from) that environment & struck out to create a new positive life & environment for myself.
