Leaving you disappointed

Have you ever gone to somebody for advice?

Somebody you thought could truely give you the word of God on what you should do, somebody you thought you could trust to point you in the right direction and have everything be alright?

Only to then have them fail, produce nothing of any kind of help or substance toward your dilemma and then not be able to see them as anything but a big let down and disappointment in your eyes forever changed by their lack of advice?

Yes but in all fairness, the birds and the bees chat is awkward.

I'm not sure that's something that's fair to be annoyed at someone for. Unless they're a professional, and you've paid them. Then get your money back

Yes I have OP. It is a massive disappointment.

But maybe they just couldn’t help with your dilemma?

Or maybe they just don’t possess enough empathy to help?

I asked somebody who claims they love all things horror to provide me with their favourite horror movie as I wanted something to watch. They could not.

I then asked them to provide me with a decent horror movie to watch. They could not.

They then proceeded to tell me of something that starts good, but ends shit.

Maybe they were worried that their favourite wouldn't live up to your expectations and they didn't want to disappoint you. And then forever be a failure in your eyes.

But at least you didn't do a thread about it

Once yes. But as time went by I realised why, this was something only I could fix. He knew it , I knew it eventually. I remember all the times when we go running together and he gave me advice, he was / is still a good friend

I'd question if they really loves horror as much as they said they did... if they really did they'd know a fair bit about it...

Oh that's a really rough time, sorry to hear that.. in the words of Shinedown

It's amazing what the hard times can reveal (have faith that you're not alone)

Like who shows up, who walks away, and who's for real (have faith that you're not on your own) xx

Ask yourself this...Do you REALLY want advice? A lot of the time when we’re looking for advice from a third party, we’re looking for someone to reaffirm what we already know

Yes. It takes a lot for me to ask for help or advice as I don't usually like to admit I need it. I had something important that I needed help on though and asked advice from family. One family member helped but the other fobbed me off and I felt very let down. I shouldn't have been surprised as it follows a pattern that's been going on for several years now but what I was asking was similar to what they do for a job and they go on about how they are there for me and I can ask for help so thought this time may have been different.
