Why women best often give bad advice to other women.For example they often advise a women to live her husband?

I had a friend who did that and she ended up telling me I was wrong to leave. Fortunately, it wasn't based on her advice that I left. That said, I can't even look at her anymore, let alone speak to her, because I could never trust her opinion or advice again. I do think, however, that you are speaking in generalities. None of my other friends, men and women, told me what to do. Instead, they were simply wonderful people who stood by me. I chose to seek the counseling of professionals -- psychological, church, legal and even my primary care doctor.Why women best often give bad advice to other women.For example they often advise a women to live her husband?
I've never seen anyone tell anyone to ';live their husband';.





Is it that difficult to type in a clear manner?Why women best often give bad advice to other women.For example they often advise a women to live her husband?
It's the woman's fault for seeking advice from someone who is not qualified to help her in the first place.


Would you go to a tennis instructor for help on your jump-shot? Or a compulsive gambler for tips at the stock markets? Or an auto mechanic to


perform surgery on your heart?





If your friend is unlucky with love; and


can't keep a man; and has never walked down the aisle...then what makes you think she's an expert?


Why involve her with marital issues?


She can't provide you with any advice drawn from experience. Her only view


of relationships is going to be compromised. And yes, she's absolutely envious and jealous of you because her own miserable existence


is so distorted and twisted.


And this is the person of whom you seek advice? Hum, what does that say


about your own judgment, I wonder?


And they want you to leave your husband so that they can try to sink their paws into him; that is, if the paws


are not fully ingratiated into him already? So, I agree with your analysis.
Most likely because they are either ignorant of the facts, jealous, insecure or a combination of all three.
If there is a good reason to leave him, that is good advice not bad
jelousey plays a big part ,woman are very catty myself being a woman am a little embaressed to say but its true and i know i will get thumbs down for this one but its true i have never given another woman advice to divorce or leave a bf only if he hits or abuses her in any way ..
It is not bad advice many times if the wife is that unhappy with her marriage her best option is to leave because men are not very willing to listen and learn the problems and they are not very willing to do anything about them and so nothing will change and the poor woman will remain miserable. If she leaves her husband she will have a chance to be free of his debilitating behavior and a chance to make a good life for her self and children, if any, and she has a chance to try again and find a mate that she can be happy with and have a good relationship.
well i suppose it is a matter of point of view??
I would give my best friend advice like I would want to be giving to me. I don't want to see my friends fail or hurt. I believe that when you are in a marriage you should work threw your problems together. God doesn't want you to leave your spouse. I think instead of us always turning to our friends we should trust in the lord and let him advice us.
Who knows???
Because women are ';catty';. And thrive on drama.











***Most women***Not all...but most!
We like to try to save other women from the same sorrow we endured.
it's only one person's opinion that it is bad advice...it could be the right thing, it could be the wrong thing, but from one friend to another it's merely a suggestion of what the one friend would do in the same situation. Nobody can make a woman leave her husband, the woman would need to make that decision on her own based on her life experiences with him.
It sounds like you've been burned.


I guess you've made up your mind, huh?


Sorry that you probably had to go through that but it isn't that way for all women who have true friends and friends who really do care for one another like sisters. I know, because I have a best friend who is older than me and I am always giving her positive advice. We are both strong Christian women who builds our families and our friendship on a strong spiritual foundation. We have been best friends for 14 years and counting. -May you find the same. God Bless!
Its an opinion hun, thats what the sites about. Get over it.
Every situations different....and, sure, some women are just bitter and assume divorce has to be the answer.


But, to turn it around, who would make the final decision to leave a spouse based on Y!Q%26amp;A?!?!?! IMO, they have bigger probs....
I think you are taking the worst case scenario and making a mountain out of it to bash best friends. Most of us want to see our friends marriages work out we try to give advice about spicing things up, or marriage counseling, even overlooking horrible behavior. Most of the time when a woman tells her friend to leave is after she has seen that friend cry and go into self abuse thinking she isn't pretty enough or young enough because she has seen her husband and heard her husband say the most horrendous things, stare at other women openly and much more. Leave him is a desperate measure that we advise when it has been too much. WHAT HAVE YOU DONE?
Maybe these women you speak of have had a bad experience that called for leaving an abusive relationship.
well, depending on the situation the advice given maybe suitable. Why would women ask questions, if they didn't want others opinions? That's the point here right?
I spoke to someone about the same thing always complaining, he told me he wasn't in love with his wife anymore but was gonna stay with her because of the money situation no children by this woman at all. he had been going though this four years i kept telling him to work it out. they are still married but not living as married couple. Do you know what it is like to be with someone who makes you UN happy.


it can be stressful even cause sickness.
And guys ***** foot around and make things worse by justifying why there woman is mad. women lay it on the line we say **** em and move on...
Well, YOU may think it's bad advice, but it totally depends on the woman's situation. If she asked the Y! Answers community about if she should leave her husband because he's been abusive, has cheated on her, has emotionally hurt her, etc., then only an idiot would tell her to ';stay with your husband, and try to work it out.';
well i think that it depends on the situation. when most of my friends are having relationship trouble i tell them to talk to their other half and sort it out like adults.
An abusive husband I guess would think its bad advice, but thats only because someone is talking sense to the woman and trying to tell her she deserves more than to be a man's battering ram. For a woman to be talking about the problems in her marriage in the first place means she either cant talk to the husband or the problems are too big for her to sort out on her own. No-one would advise a person to leave a good marriage....and anyway, a person doesnt usually follow anyone's advice unless they really feel it themselves.
Depending on the situation (which you've listed none) that advice could be good. What if he was constantly cheating on her or beating her or molesting the kids, or if he was an alcoholic or drug user? I'd say for a woman to tell her friend to leave her husband is a pretty f'n good idea!
maybe these women you speak of don't have another point of view to compare with
Misery loves company!
Misery loves company.


Women advise others to do things they have done and should be ashamed, but take sick comfort in the thought that if enough people are doing wrong, then it isn't really wrong. Isn't relativism great?
What is bad about it? I was supposed to continue to live with a guy who did not support his children and would not allow me to work? I was supposed to keep getting pregnant because he wouldn't cooperate with birth control (not religion--pure selfishness). He was seeing other women frequently. I and the children had to count on my parents for clothing. He tried beating me and it was pure mental torture. I was supposed to stay with him and let the children learn to be like him? And he sure was not going to church. Nope I consider that to be the best advice.
not always true. When it comes down to it you are going to do what you are going to do. So, what if other women tell her to leave you. Does she love you enough to stay. Her call. Mine did something bad (he cheated on me). It hurt...but, I did not leave him. Others told me I was to pretty but, I still loved him. I stood. I love him so, I forgave him. Time will only prove if this was a wise desion. I hope this helps you.
i dont beliave that a women of any kind should give bad advices


to you or other. i think it is a gossip. i think a gossip hurt by giving a wrong advice for other to hear. some of that bad advice or gossip can come to that person if it hit her or him.


so , watch out. you dont want to fell into a bad trap of her giving a wrong advice or i should say it is a bad gossip
