They'll probably feel you are not supporting them? In times, I have felt, I have wished a friend was more open, it would not have mattered if they agreed with me, that they would not close and hide (I sensed) hurt more. They may not like, or want your advice, but being heard and listened to goes further than you think.
Focus on your feelings for your friend, they are telling you in trust, and you can tell them what you think. They may really want this of you, but respect if they choose how to see whatever the question is? It is their life, and no matter how you think they should live, they are going to find their own way, too...

@drair I've learned listening to my friends help. With them, it's not about what I think is right, but listening. I try to find from their words their wants. When they do this with me, I feel heard, I open more with them. It's normal to express your wants, values, and a good friend takes cares this way.... if you didn't express, you would be more suspect, they asked you right?.
What I see is your care.
