Techno Posted November 29, 2022 Posted November 29, 2022 What is the worst advice you ever heard? I heard the classic "Don't talk to strangers online" and ended up here (Maybe that was solid advice).

The Blackangel Posted November 30, 2022 Posted November 30, 2022 Believe something in blind faith. If you're stupid enough to believe that kind of shit, you need to lose your ability in the gene pool so that you can't reproduce.
Kyng Posted November 30, 2022 Posted November 30, 2022 I think "Find a job you love, and you will never have to work a day in your life" is pretty bad advice. More often than not, it ends up as "Find a job you love, and you will soon hate something you once loved" 😞 .

I agree - all these single dating coaches giving "advice" about marriage when they've never been in one or have been divorced. I used to have this old female supervisor that tried giving other young ladies advice about relationships when she couldn't even get a man if her life depended on it. She tried involving me in her conversation once and the first thing I asked was why should anyone listen to her when she can't even get a man? That's like me asking the meth head in the parking lot how to be a Customs Officer. Needless to say, that's the last time she ever started a convo like that while I was around. The Blackangel 1
Shortie Posted December 15, 2023 Posted December 15, 2023 As much as some advice can really help, I have definitely had my fair share of bad advice. Being I was quite a young mum and had my first child just before I was 18, many tried to give me advice on why it was bad, why I will have ruined my life and such but now that my eldest is an adult and my second is also an adult with my other two only a few years behind and me only being 37 now, I look back and think it wasn't that much of a bad thing and any advice I received that tried to make me feel as though I had done wrong, was very much bad advice.Â
Debashis Posted January 26, 2024 Posted January 26, 2024 The worst advice I ever heard was "Just ignore your problems and they will go away." This came from a kid at school lol. It's important to address and resolve issues rather than hoping they will magically disappear.
