Ok. So im a very passive person, i dont like to start drama, i usually walk away from it. All of my friends on the other hand, like to dump it all on me. I guess im just a really good advice giver, but lately, especially with my best friend who i thought i could count on for anything, im being treated like a therapist. Now there are things i need to talk about too, and ive not been hiding that fact. But it seems like the only time that my friend will even talk to me is when she needs advice about something stupid. I try to explain, im not a therapist i am a person! and im about ready to explode if i get asked one more stupid question or to phsyco analyze someting while i have serious things to talk about. This never used to happen, we were always both there for eachother. I guess just give me advice on how i can tell her this without sounding like i never want to help her with anything again, but that she cant rely on me for every decision in her life? ive tried, nothing works. thank you anybody who answers.

Except the only way she will give me advice is if it has something to do with her. A true friend would never do that they would actually sit down && have time to listen to your problems...Instead of always wanting you to give her advice. I think you should sit her down && talk to her about how you feel when she always want something from you but when you expect the same thing from her its wrong. You can't keep suppressing your emotions && feelings just because she wants you to sit there && listen to her problems && tell her what to do 24/7.

And ask them your questions and see how they feel then they will understand and see how you feel. I hope everything works out! [ cutie2006player's advice column | Ask cutie2006player A Question ]
