Why doesn’t my boyfriend listen to my advice?

He had a performance review at work and it didn’t go well so I gave him some advice. I figured there was room for it since I’m a manager who leads a team and performs similar reviews…

He hung up on me to call him friend for advice 🤨 later he called me to reiterate what advice his friend gave him as though it was some sort of revelation or newfound advice. I literally gave him that same advice before he called his guy friend. Apparently this friend reads a lot of ‘psychology articles’… like, being a manager who deals with team members in similar situations as yourself doesn’t give me any leverage?

From now on I have nothing to say. I’m just going to sit and look cute and see how long I last. He wants to talk? He can call his homie since he’s emotionally attracted to him. Apparently I’m only here for sex

I’m sorry. That sucks that he took your advice as an attack of sorts. You meant well and sharing your experiences could’ve been useful. Might be worth talking to him about how that played out.
