Scenario: Let A represent as my friend and B as you. A always confide on B bout his/her problem with his/her lovelife and B as A's friend keep on saying encouragement words and giving advices but A never listen. That scenario will continue over and over again. A will ask for advice but will never listen. It comes to the point that B almost gave up with his/her friendship with A. Year past still same scenario. How would you react with this scenario? If you are B, how would yo deal with A?

Yes sometimes its annoying that people keep on seeking for your advice over and over again and yet he/she never listens. May i share some sentiments with you about a good friend of mine always asking me for advice about his lovelife for almost 5 years already but still he never applies what I told her. It is really disappointing but I should understand her because I believe that someday will come my friend will realize that all my advices are really applicable. I am just here for her as a friend and always listens. I think that is the essence of being a good friend, I just respect her decision as long as it will never affects our friendship.

there are people who loves to talk about their problems but never listen to advices, they just want to hear what they want to hear. but B sounds like a good friend... he shouldnt give up on A be always there at A's side thats what friends really are. being a friend doesnt mean that ill take and follow all your advice. being a friend means always be there at your friends side.
