That's kind of you but sometimes it's best to keep the information to yourself if it's not asked for. Often people misinterpret positive intentions. That's the cruel truth..

why don't you fucking stop then? stop pretending you care about them.

In most things that matter, people wont change unless they want or need to.
Your advice would go on deaf ears if they didnt ask for it, especially so if theyre starting to call you annoying.

If you believe you know better in something, but they dont ask for advice or arent in a position they really need the advice, odds are that you trying to give advice isnt doing anything at all and you just seem like a know it all dickhead.
Its almost like a parent watching their children, theres some mistakes you just need to watch them do to themselves, and then come in to help when they are obviously open for it or need it.

Being there for others is often a fairly unrecognized position, and you wont get much thanks from it.
On the other hand though, if someones been through some serious shit and youve played your cards right with real insight and advice, youll gain a friend for life because they will probably notice that you do actually care.

Of course, theres also the matter of what kind of advice youre trying to give them.

You just gotta try and keep it to yourself. I do this a lot to my family, and they always give me shit about how they don't care about what I think. I don't do it as often with my friends because I'm not as critical of them, but I imagine I would get a similar response.

That's a pretty nice feel. I have a friend who's essentially Taiga Aisaka, he's smaller and impulsive, he relies on me to take him places, do stuff for him, and just generally orders me around.
