this is all the other advicenators, because since you are all on this site like me, im thinking maybe you guys have had the same problem. obviously, we all like helping people. but what happens when we're the ones who need the help, but we feel we can't ask for it because we're supposed to be the one who has all the solutions. please dont tell me to write my problem on here, because obviously i know that. don't get me wrong...i LOVE giving people advice...but in the real world, have any of u guys ever felt like your not supposed to need any back in return? just a thought...let me know what u think.

selectopaque answered Monday November 15 2004, 10:50 pm: No. I think it's pretty foolish to think that you have all the answers and will never need to ask for help. It's quite possible that you could give advice on a certain topic, only to want to ask about the same topic later on. It's all a matter of "tell me what you think I should do, so I can make a better decision" A lot of people on this site seem to already know what they need to do. But they still ask the questions to get reassured from other people.
sunshine1030 answered Monday November 15 2004, 10:36 pm: i know exactly what you mean. i love helping people too, but sometimes i need help too. its much easier to give advise than it is to take it. sometimes all it takes is talking to another person who also likes helping people, or who you trust with your life to basically tell you the same thing that you would tell someone in your situation. and don't ever feel like you can't ask for help or advise just because you have an advise column and love giving other people advise. you're giving them advise from an outsider's point of view, but when it's happening to you, it's much harder to have an open mind about it. please don't feel like you're supposed to have all the answers, and if you ever need advise, don't heistate to ask [ sunshine1030's advice column | Ask sunshine1030 A Question ]
Bec3394 answered Monday November 15 2004, 9:59 pm: no one has all of the answers. if they did we wouldn't need our friends and family. we could live life, never have relationship problems, all make the big bucks, and die happy. sometimes problems can bring you close to the people you love. don't be scared to let them help you - i'm sure they want to.

xokaylanicoleox answered Monday November 15 2004, 9:38 pm: Well, my personal thought is: No matter how much advice we can give to other people, it isn't so easy to listen to ourselves. We need to hear other people's opinion and you can ask your friends and your family and whoever else, but on this site you know everyone is here to help no matter whether you give advice on here too. Everyone needs advice sometimes and the people here love to give it so why not ask? -Kayla [ xokaylanicoleox's advice column | Ask xokaylanicoleox A Question ]
Siren_Cytherea answered Monday November 15 2004, 9:34 pm: Oh yeah, I've felt like that so many times. I only ask advice from one of my friends, and that's because I don't give him advice. I feel like I can't ask for advice from the people I counsel (well, at least the people I know that I counsel (my friends)). but I know what you mean, I think.

MFS answered Monday November 15 2004, 9:31 pm: We aren't supposed to have all the answers. No one has all the answers... if we did, what else would there be left of learn or experience? Never feel that you can't ask something. [ MFS's advice column | Ask MFS A Question ]
