Why can't I

Give myself good advice, like I give to others?

Most of my friends will come to me for advice if they have an idea, a problem, or just need a sounding board, and I'm often told that the advice I give, is sound advice, but why can't I give myself good advice?

Is it like not being able to tickle yourself?

There are far too many of those on the forums

And back to KB, I think it's because we already know what we should do, but are too stubborn to listen to ourselves

Oh no I gave into talking to myself years ago, sometimes I'm the only one who wants to talk to me

Yeah, it would be draining to answer the thousands of "why can't I get a meet" and "how can I get my wife involved in swinging" let alone all the cock pics wit "does this weeping look normal to you"

Someone else's advice is drawn on things that maybe you can't see as you're too close to the problem.

It can also be something you may not want to do even though it's for the best, hence you don't *see it.

Hindsight is a wonderful thing and sometimes your advice to others - comes from getting your fingers burnt when you did that exact same thing.
