Unrequested advice. Sometimes it is warranted after all.
And some people genuinely want to help, without implying the other person is stupid, weak, incompetent either.
Unrequested advice is always taken for criticism. Don't do it. Ask first. "May I give you fome advice?"
And if they say "no", listen.
Very rare in ny experience :(
It's worse after you vent to someone and they give you it. Especially when it was unwanted.
