Why do people take offense when you do not take their advise?

Why do others feel they need to tell you how to live?


Why can't they mind their own business, and leave us alone?Why do people take offense when you do not take their advise?
I find my self going through the same thing lately, they seem to know alot about others lives and how to live them when they even have trouble living there own, granted I dont make a lot of good decisions but that doesn't mean i need other people to make wrong decisions for me, I want my self to be the only one to blame if something goes wrong.Why do people take offense when you do not take their advise?
Because most people think they are right. If they care about you, they usually want to do what is best for you and usually always think they know what that is. I myself believe that experience is a good teacher and think a lot of people must learn by living it. At 30 however I often look back and wish I had taken mother's advice more than once.





Good look with your journey through life!
Because everyone thinks is a manager of everyone elses' lives. Your best advisor is you. F...k em all and do as you please
Some people have a Psychological Need to tell others how to live their lives. In some ways, advising others gives people a feeling of self-importance or a feeling of superiority.





Advice, when given in a tactful and diplomatic form, can be constructive rather than coming off as harsh criticism or where it's someone else who is trying to tell someone how things should be done.





The worst types of advisors are those who advise others, but their own lives are a mess and where they should really be heeding their own advice first to clean up their lives before telling others how to clean up theirs.





There are certain cases where intervention in the form of advice may be necessary, but it should be reserved for extreme cases where the individual poses a harm to himself or to others.





Too much advice can create dependency and where those who are being told what to do will develop a passive personality that is unable to think independently because the individual never got the opportunity to develop his or her own reasoning skills to solve problems on their own.
well if your of the kind that sits around moaning and complaining all the time....... whining what am i going to do and someone gives you a resolution to your problem...if that be the case then I'd take offense too usually people can't offer advice unless you give them an opening
Good question... I have often felt the same... However if they give advice it is usually because they want to help...





us as accepters should home in on our skills at accepting other peoples ideas and taking the good and neglecting the bad - respectfully





Blessed,
you may in some way asked or suggested you needed advice and then didn't take it..some people do that all the time and never take the advice given..then come back later to complain, it's annoying and you get sick of it after a while
well if i gave you my advice you probably wouldnt take it then i'd have to hunt you down, so its best that i dont say anything
maybe because you asked a question but other than that i don't know
