  1. i’m the person that all my friends go to when they want advice. and i’m the person who willingly wants to give the advice. i don’t know, i find a kind of happiness and satisfaction when i help people out and make them truly feel like they’re being listened to and understood. i wish someone would try to understand me and give back that advice that i so willingly give. but it’s ok if they don’t. i’ll still be happy

  2. Ha, advice. You know there are a lot of people who want to dish out advice. My advice to them is to get off their high horse and mingle with us common folk and give advice from the mud. Let me tell you, you are dirty when you give advice, but at least no one will say get off that high horse.

  3. Should be taken with a grain of salt.

  5. No one knows how to give advice. Some of us know that, some of us don’t. Those who give advice really wish someone was giving them advice. But no one ever does. Those of us receiving advice really wish no one was giving us advice. But it always seems like someone is.

  6. I try to give it. I receive it a lot from people who have no idea what they’re talking about. Sometimes I get random questions on tumblr that I try to fumble and answer… to no avail. I think that advice can only be taken so far: you have to come up with your own plan. It’s a fine line between helpful and controlling.

  7. Advice is information given to someone seeking answers, answers that may determine an important outcome in their life. Advice doesn’t necessarily have to be given by someone who’s recognized as super-smart, but instead someone who is expereinced, or at least has experienced more or the same thing as you. Networking on a social, personal level. Networking without Internet, an interconnectedness without wires. Organic, free.

  8. I don’t really like giving advice anymore because people don’t always like what i think so i try not to think about it. instead i just tell them what i think they want to hear. honestly sometimes people need to hear what they want from somebody more than what they need. it’s okay.

  9. Best not given if it is not asked for. Can be very helpful but can also be hurtful. I I think my advice has gotten better over the years. I sometimes gave unasked for advice in the past and wished I hadn’t. It’s not about being right it’s about helping. The word advice as these words within it: Ad Vice Ice Cad Dice Vie Vied Cave Ave Dive Avid Acid.

  10. I think that I always want advice, but in the end I will want to choose my own path. That being said though, getting advice from trusted friends and family can be a great thing. It can help you sort out what is truly important.

  11. The funny thing about advice is everybody’s got some but they’re all wrong.
    They would tell you to take the train. Or keep the baby. Maybe to kill the man. They’d tell you to train to be an astronaut, to follow your life’s dream, when you know you haven’t the time to do so. Really, all the good advice in this world has been used up by generations past. It’s gone. Everybody’s wrong. Don’t bother looking.
    There’s some pesky advice, again, though. So which of us is wrong, me or you?

  12. One thing you should know about me – I’m a really stubborn person, they said all Saggies are, in fact, all the people who are Dogs (chinese horoscope) are, too. They told me not to fall for him, but I did anyways. He’s special, he’s different, I told them, you wouldn’t understand.

    But look where I am now, with nothing but a ‘single’ status, and cuts on my arms I would never show. I hated the fact that I didn’t listen to them. I fell for a two timer. The End.

  13. salita na nagbibigay ng gabay o tulong sa nangangailangan o may problema ;) : the word that giving help to others.

  14. i am constantly having to give advice. all my friends come to me for it. a good listener gives good advice. it’s great to be able to get advice whenever you need it.

  15. is the only thing people give that you can decide whether to take or leave without letting them know what you’ve decided to do with it.
    sometimes good, sometimes bad.
    you make that decision yourself.

  16. Now the good thing about advice is that you don’t have to take it. you can give it and dish it out as much as you want but thank heavens if someone give it to you – you don’t have to take it.

  17. The one thing I needed she could never give me.
    No matter how I asked, what I asked, how badly I needed it….
    I never got what I wanted.
    In a way it was nice;I was a fraid of what I’d hear.

  18. adding the toppings to a
    cone in the middle of the
    easy street that’s where I want to
    bees all over the place and
    I’m afraid to be stung
    by the digusting life
    that i
    lead a line in school

  19. This is about hoe I can give myself to others in order to give them hope. Not for my own benefit but to enrich other peoples lives without asking for anything in return – no strings attached. Just helping others in order to help yourself.

    Advicing people is really presnting people your perspective in life – your own reality and as such its a real pleasure to have someon who is ppreciative and take peices of it to fit into their own.

  20. you want some advice kid? whatever you do, never be sorry for what you do. you are not perfect and your mistakes are a part of you. the best you can do is learn from them and from there, decide if you like the way your life is going. the sun always sets and the moon always shines kid, live life as if the moon is burning and the sun is freezing.

  21. Good advice, bad advice – everyone is so keen to give it. Everyone knows what to do, except you, yourself, alone. But is it the best advice for you or just what they would do. And when it is so freely given, does anyone pay heed to it anyhow? Do they follow that piece of advice? Do you get a rating scale if it is right or wrong so you can improve the advice you give next time?

  22. I always give great advice, but rarely do I take it. Love, life and the pursuit of happiness. I tend to look to others for advice and yet they sometimes give me the same I’ve given them.

  23. More advice? I just couldn’t understand what he would be saying that hasn’t been said before. There is nothing in me left that wants to exist; why is he telling me that I should consider reassessing my retirement plan. Why plan on retirement when you don’t want to see the sun come up one more morning.

  24. Advice isn’t always taken, and only given to those who think they know more about you than even you yourself.

    Yet even with that information in mind he persisted.

    “I think that if you love someone, you should follow that path and see where it takes you.”

  25. something people give out when they really need it. i sometimes need it. its easier to give then to get. life goes on. gu?

    julia
  26. it’s that little piece of something that people listen to, even when they’re not so sure that the other person is right. it’s oh, so easy to slip and think “they know what’s best.” the confusing thing is, sometimes they are.

  27. “here it is.”
    the advice could impact hundreds of lives, or just mine. who knows? i didn’t know how this advice might impact my kids, my grand kids. or just me.
    “just do it. don’t think about it.”
    so i listened. and here i am, wishing hard that i had not followed this particularly nasty piece of advice.
    it’s too late now.

  28. Advice often sways me in the wrong direction. What was once clear is now foggy. And my stubbornness overrides all – goodbye, advice-giver. I will not be giving a shit what you have to say.

  29. I couldn’t believe what I was hearing. Don’t see him? Don’t talk to him? How was this supposed to be any better than what was happening right now? If anything, it would be worse. Much, much worse. Despite what my head and everyone else was saying, I decided to listen to my heart.

  30. once I was looking for advice on how to live my life. I didn’t know where to go and I was told to listen to other people who had been there before. I am someone who likes to make good decisions so I’m not one of those who must make every mistake to know a good thing when i hear it so i take the advice of others.

  31. Advice is telling people your opinion on what their choice should be when making a decision.

  32. She turns and looks at me, visibly disgusted; “You can do so much better than him. You deserve so much more.”

    I stare at her, confused. Slowly, I being, “I can do better than a happy, healthy relationship with a guy that loves me unconditionally? And I deserve more than being completely in love with someone and finally feeling satisfied with my life? Thanks for the advice, but I think I’ll skip it this time.”

  33. My advice to you is to never forget the orgasmic bliss of walking on the faerie-green grass with your feet as bare as blueberries on a summer bush.

  34. when people give me advice I rarely take it because really who knows what’s better for me than me? Advice is actually other people’s way of saying that they know better than you. Does that make me independent or a pill?

  35. “You shouldn’t do this.”

    His voice rang clearly through the silent room, and Carise turned, slowly. She stared at him for a moment before replying.

    “You think you know what is best for me?” she questioned.

    A pause. “Yes.”

  36. Hear ye, hear ye…ahem, know that I pray for you all to stop the bull-shit and heed this advice: Get the CUSS out of here! THANK you, kindly!

  37. I would like to give my son some advice, but I know for sure he wont take it. He is 18 and thinks he knows it all. I wish that he did. I wish that he knew that he is throwing his life away. But he won’t listen to me. Just like I wouldnt listen to my parents at that age. Its a part of life. And it’s so painful to watch.

  38. take advice carefully. People have a hidden agnda when they give you adivse. They want to see what happens when you act out their own fantasies. They don’t want to take the risk on their own life. They love drama an don’t mind if your life gets messe d up. Do they ever consider your needs before their own subconcious? It takes a special person to do this and I wouldn’t count on it!

    Christine
  39. You tell me about your life and how perfect it is. You give me advice and tell me how to live but who are you to tell me whats right or wrong?

  40. I try to get advice on all the things in my life that need change or all the things that make me feel out of control. I try to get advice to become a better version of myself and grow. It’s hard to listen to most advice, but most of the time it’s hard to take it in and apply it.
