Advice! the blind leads the blind!

I've always wondered why the first people to give you advice are the ones who are in worst situations than you are!

1. The unlicensed marriage/relationship counselor: she can tell u what to do to keep your man or that he is taking too long to marry you, or if you keep treating him like your husband he will never make it official but yet still she either doesn't have a relationship or struggling to keep one!

2. The life coach: she will tell u that your life is too safe or boring! You need some excitement! You need to go out more often (minus the spouse), Flirt with men, Live life (partying is living life to some) or that since your young you should be juggling several men... They never take into account juggling a full time job, college, and a man is enough excitement!

3. The finance expert: she is the one that will tell you to buy anything your heart desires regardless of price or economy because you have not a chick or child to worry about! Also be available and willing to lend money (to her) at any given time because you have no major expenses: never mind that your rent is almost twice hers, you have a car note and insurance (she has none), you have utility payments, cell phone and home phone (her own cut), transportation fee ($10 US a day) she only has to pay $4, daily lunch, groceries, and pay a $16,000 tuition upfront semi annually when your job only reimburses you $8000, but that is in no comparison to minding a man or having more than one kid!

4. The travel agent: who find you should stop going on so many vacations with your man! There are certain places you should go with your girlfriends! Meanwhile they never experience the pleasure of lying on the beach with a man! Don't get me wrong I don't mind hanging with the girls but the toss up between my man and friends does not exist.

5. The Psychic: if you happen to say your feeling under the weather.. Automatically something is going on with you and your man.. And they just knew everything was not as perfect as it seems.

NOTE: you can find all five in one person
Moral is these people never take into account what makes you happy, they project their negative energy because of loneliness, jealousy, boldness, and ignorance! You want to give me relationship advice (that I never ask for) have a successful marriage, financial advice- have a wealthy stock portfolio and never have to borrow from me, Life advice- have your shit together and so on! A true friend never finds faults unnecessarily!

Couldn't have said it any better Lisa. Most people love to speak into your live when in fact they have no clue, or couldn't walk a DAY in your shoes!!
