I agree...its their life afterall

Because people need to talk about things. One can only talk about the weather for so long.

Those are next to the type of people who try to guess every single thing your going to say before you say it, and it's wrong 90% of the time.

Ahhhh!!!

The "know it all" ones...How can i forget them

They really just want you to listen.

However, their are the emotional vampires. I've experienced them. But, they usually imploded on themselves as my harmony is not shaken by thier disharmony. 'Cause I'll listen all day but, at the end of the day, it's your life to ruin.

You can talk all day about your cheating or abusive husband that you wuv so much. But, when you're done, I'll be like "okay dear, I'm heading to the water park."

You need other opinions that conflict your own in order to make the right decision.

Other people's advice is never dismissed, it will be there, helping you to understand your situation more.

I don't see it as a bad thing.

Ultimately we all do what we want ....

Why ask.. Just to hear thoughts maybe you'll hear something apealing, maybe not!!

Exactly!

I guess if they find any advice that is convenient to them they take it, otherwise not

What if your advice is crap?

Lets say its not, what then?

According to you?

That's the problem. Unsolicited advice is irritating. What may be good for you isn't good for everyone.

You can't make someone do something because you say it's "good".

Ppl vent.

My advice to you is don't listen to it.

See I see that as good advice, but are you going to do it?

Maybe it's not "good" advice according to you because of x, y and z.

No not according to me! I dont like bragging about myself...According to few ppl i have given advice to in real life

Unsolicited advice!!! Never have i ever done that

I only give advice to those who want it from me (dxp not included)

But i agree with the fact you stated- whats good for me is not good for everyone

And i will consider your advice Arielle 😉
