What are your views about advices?

i thkn that i would be appreciative for the most part because if they are trying to give you advice they are trying to help more than likely...and its good when people try nad help you but on the other hand i hate it when people just but into my business when it has nothing to do with them at all...probably because i have had that all of my life...and i don't really like it when people get into my business

I guess I would have to understand the thought behind the advise, particularly unsolicited advise. usually that is some one with their own agenda, and want to make me do something for them. I very seldom give advise because I do not have to live with the consequences. I try to responsibility for my actions and one of the actions I hold back on is unsolicited advise. I find it amazing that some people will walk up to me and tell me I should be doing something different than I am now. I always ask them why the believe that they are giving good advice, Do I look Like I need help and advice, their answer, "NO I am just trying to be friendly" This was from some one who told me I should never wear shorts because I had varcuous veins. You just have to really wonder, good discussion

I don't appreciate unsolicited advice, and for that very same reason, I don't give other people unsolicited advice either. When someone gives me unsolicted advice, I let them know that I don't appreciate it, and that it is not their place to advise me, unless I ask for it. I would expect the same thing were I to give someone unsolicited advice.

It depends on which area of my life they are giving advice on. I used to get advised to get married and have kids while I was in my 20s. People think that it gets dangerous for a woman to have their first born child as they get older. They think it's that easy to find a man you will want to live with for the rest of your life. I hated it. But if I'm frantically trying to figure out how to operate something and someone comes to aid and give me advice, that is most welcome. Some people give advice and make you feel you don't know what you're doing. I hate it.

I like advice, but if I dont agree with that persons advice I normally just kinda agree and just do what I feel like I need to do with that particular advice.

Whether or not I will take unsolicited advice relies solely on what the subject of the advice pertains to. I do like to give advice and try to give it when asked, but otherwise I will not give it unless I feel that it can be helpful to my friends. A lot of people are offended by advice because they feel that the person giving them the advice thinks that they are incompetent in whatever subject the advice is about. It is a very touchy subject to be talked about, as no one person really knows what another's reaction may be. Some people are able to tell what way a person will react to advice given.

I definitely appreciate it when I receive advice from someone when it is evident that I am having some sort of difficulty in my life, or I am doing some sort of activity in public and someone gives me some tips, but some "advice" can be offensive, especially when it's really just someone pushing their own ideals on to you. I actually started a discussion relating to this in "People", regarding some "advice" that a person gave my mother and that insulted me quite a bit. I love to give advice, usually when people ask me for it (which happens often, as I seem to be the "wise mother hen" within my group of friends), but I also give advice to friends who I know wouldn't ask for it for whatever reason, if I observe that they seem to be a bit lost or confused. =D

I tend to give advice, but always have trouble taking it, even when I know that I'm being told something that is helpful.

I never give advice unless I am asked. If someone gives it to me unsolicited I would thank them politely, but I would not necessarily follow their advice. I would give it some consideration then I would decide either to reject it or to give it a try. I don't welcome advice. I like to make my own choices and decisions, but if someone is genuinely trying to be helpful I will appreciate their effort. I do not appreciate it if anyone tries to interfere and wants to make me do something I don't intend to do. That would be different and I would resent it.
