For me honestly I try as much as I can to follow my girlfriend's advice but there are a lot of cases that I can't. So tell me do you always follow your partners advice? How will you tell your partner if you don't want to follow his or her advice?

Honestly, as much as possible I want to follow his advice but I would hypocrite when I do that so I must try to explain to him in a nice way why I have to resent some of his advices. Though there's really instances that trying to tell him why I did not follow his advice result in some arguments but I think it was just normal in a couple so that is what I need to do. To try to have a lot of patience.

In all honesty, its very rare that i go to anyone including my hubby or bf for advice...BUT if I do, I definately take their suggestions into consideration. That doesnt mean though that I follow what they've suggested by any means..

I will always discuss with both parties (partner and parents). I try to get mutual understanding from both of them. I will listen to sensible advice. I don't like to follow my boyfriend's words blindly because of love. I think it's better to get both sides of advice into consideration before we take our final action.

I agree we shouldn't only listen only to one sole advice. Thanks for responding

Yes.. because I trust him. I let him know the things that are going on about me. Also , i know that if something wrong results from the things I choose to do, it will affect him as much as it will do on me. I follow his advice, especially i know that he will never push me into something that will hurt me in the end.

I don't always follow what my fiance tells me (I'm pretty hard headed when it comes to things. Haha! but he knows that I do try to follow what he says especially when it comes to my health. (he knows I hate doctors and would refuse to go to one even if I was really really sick-like what happened to me a couple weeks back. I was confined for four days because of pneumonia and asthma.) I also try to follow his advice when it comes to my own personal growth. Like if he sees something that isn't good, he tells me... Well, I'm like that with him too. We're both open when it comes to advice and what have you. That's one of the reasons why we jive so well.

Most of the time yes. There is a good mutual understanding between my wife and I from the beginning. Most of the advise she gives are true and I follow them.
