I Found Your Nose- It Was In My Business Again

I really don't like being in people's business. Or visa versa.

There is a difference between giving an opinion and flat out telling a person what they need or should do at any given moment with their lives. 😉

agreed. if I have an opinion of what a person could do I try to ask "have you tried/thought about..."

it's their decision, they know their condition better than me.

I've been asked to help at interventions. its pretty awkward.

I mean really, what makes any of us think we have anyone else's answers. Just look at our political field and even the 'preachers' and clergy. No one knows what is right or wrong for anyone. Once people start making decisions on their own how do you convince them that you know what they need. 😖

its in our nature to help.

Absolutely and I've been there to help in every way I could. Still am.

I learned from a counselor once that there's a difference between helping and fixing. Talk about confusing at first but then it made sense.
