The idea of friendsubs, short for friend substitutes is to step in for your friends and family, even if it is an hour a day.

A lot of people don't feel they can confide in their family or friends, there are also those people who can but are unable to because of issues like lack of availability or incompatible timezones. 

That is where we step in. Those days where you really want to have a conversation or even rant, but no one seems to be available, we can fill in.
