How do you take unsolicited advice?

I have been with an adult who told me once that if a person doesn't ask for an advice, don't give unsolicited advice because that person may take it negatively against you. Therefore, I think that I need to develop such an attitude. There may be some other ways where we can say something about a situation and people can take it positively. If a person knows how much you care, then giving of unsolicited advice would be welcome to him.

I like it,though sometimes I'm not happy,but after that,when I think it back,I'll feel good,someone advice you because he love you care about you,if you really did not good,some advice may give you some help,so I like it.

HELLO FRIEND,

I totally agree what u said, that its really very very difficult to give advise the situation u mentioned, even though we care a lot for that person, but that person is not in a mood to understand or hear what we are saying then it become pointles discussion or issue.
I feel i just pray to god for that person to give him/her understanding so that she/he may make correct moves in their life, and which is good for their future..

I look at it this way, the person giving unsolicited advice cares enough about me that he gives an advice. Well, I try to be positive as much as I can. There are just unsolicited advice, especially from people I barely know, that are just irritating. I try to be polite even in cases like that but I immediately walk away to avoid any more discussions.
Cheers!

I have nothing against those people who give me advices even I am not asking for it. I am actually glad because I know they are just concern to me. They don't want bad things happened on me. It is up to me if I would take their advices. In the end, it is still me who will decide. They are just instrumental for a healthy and wise decision.

Yes, I like take advices. Especially from my family. Because of if your family give an advice to you, it's for your goodness.

I personally believe that advice should only be given when it's asked for. Otherwise the person just looks at you and lets your words go in one ear and right out of the other one. So you just wasted your breath, time, effort and energy....

I just smile most of the time. Remember you have the control whether to listen to them or not.But trust me, they just voice out their opinions which they think you need. So whenever you encounter such thing, just smile graciously and say "thank you".

Let me put it this way? What if no one gave you unsolicited advice and you were fired from your job because your personal hygiene was not good? It happened to me. I am positive had someone said to me, A- why do you not use a stronger deoderant or why not take a bath twice a week instead of once a week, I would have snapped their head off. After all then i was in my early 20s and I take after my father, I flare up and then it is all over. But the advice no matter how unwanted would be something that needed to be said.
And if it is who you are going with, maybe they are telling you to think a little before committing yourself. After all, if the other is a spend thrift, once you know, you will make sure that you save enough so that one can live in the style ---

I think that is why it is called unsolicited. It depends on how a person will take it or if the situation calls for it.
In my opinion, I do not give unsolicited advice. I only listen to someone who complains and it is up to them if they want my advice. If they do ask for it that is when I give my advice.
