A curse?

This isn't a problem or something serious, just something funny(or I find it funny) I've noticed all these years and wonder if anyone feels the same way.

I'm able to give excellent advice to my peers and others. BUT, even though I can give everyone great advice how come it never works for me or I don't follow it? I can tell someone how to handle a situation and it works out but when I face the same situation it seems like the problem is completely different. :rolleyes:

Reminds me of a line from a book from the Dragonlance series.

....the exact same thing happens to me. when other ppl have problems, i give good solutions but never follow them when i m the one having the problem.. i m good at losing problems -but only other ppls problems. when i have a problem, i really dont know what to do, to make the situation better.. i dont really know why that happens... maybe because others trust our opinion much more than we do when we face the problem, we think that its not the right thing to do.. i dont know... what do u think????

well maybe people give better advice to others because their minds are cleared and not as pressured as the person in trouble is. i'm not really much of a good adviser but i try to put myself on the other person's shoes and try to look at the problem from their perspective.

maybe somthings were really meant for group discussions...

Glad to know I'm not alone and you may have a point Angel.

it's nearly impossible to be objective when trying to deal with your own circumstances
