Is it rude for people to give advice when you did not ask for it?

Please answer seriously and if possible give a source.Is it rude for people to give advice when you did not ask for it?
I need no source, other than my own experience and yes, it is very rude to give unsolicited advice.Is it rude for people to give advice when you did not ask for it?
I think it depends on the situation. Sometimes a person is glad to have advice, and it is helpful.


Sometimes the person resents it.


Between friends and family I think it is okay.
Sometimes people assume you want their advice when you share information with them. I think there is more of an issue when people become upset that you don't take their advice.
Unsolicited advice is rude. If your advice was not asked for, then it probably isn't wantes. You didn't say who ';someone'; is. I especiaally hate when it comes from a stranger. When a complete stranger comes up to me and starts banging on about how I can do whatever better, I just give them a hard, cold stare, then roll my eyes and ignore them. But then I am a jackass.
I think it is rude to give unsolicited advice , unless it's one of your children.............................sou鈥?life experience
you know it took me a real long time to learn how to take tips and advice from people when i was playing pool. i felt the exact same way as you described.


but what i learned from that was a lot of times people are just trying to help, and really do know what they are talking about. i also know that for me it's hard to try to help somebody out sometimes without sounding like you are telling them what to do. ya know? but really that's what happened for me, and now that i listen to all these old farts that i thought were just trying to hit on me, my game has improved and i have gained some timeless advice.


so it gets easier as you go, but just try to suck it up, so to speak, and listen to what someone has to say. after you get over the whole, feels like they're telling you some ****, you'll be able to tell even better who is trying to mess you around, or what ever. does that make sense? i hope it helps...
So long as it is done in good taste. It's okay. *-*
I think rude is the wrong word here. I think you guys just think it's very, very annoying. I would have to agree.
I appreciate whenever people give me advice when they're just honestly trying to help me improve or be better at something. It shows me they care enough about me to want to help. However, -I can be quite blunt- and I don't allow strangers to interfere in my life, whatsoever. I take advice only from people I know truly care about me and I give advice only to people that ask me for it.
I think it can be very rude, but at other times no big deal. I think you have to take into consideration what the topic is, if someone says to try a certain handcream as you have dry hand, its probably not as likely to overstep boundries as if someone tells you how to handle a family realtionship. You can also look at how often that person wants your input, and how often your advise is well-received. However, in general, I would say that unless not giving advice would put someone in immediate danger, one would want to err on the side of caution.
No, many people give advice in the hopes that they can do you some good. I don't see how being a concerned friend could be considered as rude. ;-)
I think so. I mean, if that person wanted your input, they would've asked for it.
