A person who listens to your troubles or someone who starts off with a list of things you should do?? Personally, i would prefer someone who listens first and give me tips when am better...But that's jus me....What about you?

I would rather have a person listen to my problems and then offer advice. Not tell me what to do but ways to improve or make me happier.

i cant stand ppl who just start spewing out a list of what to do before they even understand what the problem is! and the one thing that would make the biggest difference when they offer such "advice" should be to change the opening sentence!! instead of "this is what you do, or do this" they need to say, "have you tried this?" or even "do you think this would help?" its frequently how they word the advice that makes a difference.

Yea I'd rather a person who is prepared to listen to my problems and then ask how I feel after just to make sure that I'm feeling better, I would then let them talk to me and give me their ideas on my problems when I'm feeling sad!!!
