“What works for you may not work for me...”

Some people cannot get this message. I had some close friends who tend to be persuasive with their opinions about something. Personally speaking, it is better to give such opinions and let someone does his or her final judgment and decision. If they cannot persuade you, then the evil side of them come out and tried to pull you down.
“Did you ever experience being nibbled?”
“Are there any friends who tried to be all-knowing?”

Hahahahaha. Shavkat, I know people who are like that. Those people who think they are always right and will impose their views and opinions and others. You are not alone.

@Shavkat Sometimes it is good to give people a dose of their own medicine "para magtanda". Hehehe But I like that you are frank but still knows how to stand your ground. Some people dont know their boundaries.

@mlgen1037 I agree. Some people are so insensitive and in denial at times. That doesn't for me, either.

@ConVolines Exactly, my friend. But I don't go for such kind of persona.

Maybe these people are always self-righteous. They always think their judgment is better than others.

This happens a lot. I have friends who have this idea that if it isn't their opinion, then it is not valid. I think that is a very shallow way of thinking. You can only try to make people understand and still have in mind that everyone is entitled to an opinion.

Hey! Great post! I think people always relate to their own experience when they advice others, but problems can only be solved by objective and solid analysis in my opinion. Sometimes, all-knowing ones can cross the line and not in a productive way... And they don't always have the best intentions... They tend not to think about it, vut do as their instinct tells, and this is not the solution... Anyway, you are great and your posts are so nice! :)

They are all around. If I give an opinion I am asked for and the person wants to argue, well...I'm not Socrates. I walk away. If you only want to argue, see ya later.
