This is just a general boundary that people need to acknowledge and respect more, especially online. You shouldn't feel obligated to listen to them, you aren't their emotional support animal. if you're uncomfortable at all, or just generally don't want to listen, then they should respect that. As kind as it is to listen to people in need, I think they should reach out to people they actually know -- or an advice hotline or any other place where venting is appropriate, instead of someone who is clearly uncomfortable.
