Haha... well, my friend does that... I try to give her all sorts of advice until I'm empty of advice and ready to shake her and say, "Why'd you ask me!" But she's still my friend, so I don't... :-)

Because she's looking for something that does not exist -- a so-called magic bullet -- and is frustrated that all you have to offer is good, ol' common sense. That's not atypical at all; in fact, it's a very human reaction. Continue to offer your best advice -- and be patient. She's turning to you because she values your input (even though she may not take your advice).

i'm an atheist. you're able to desire to first understand that a Christian might desire to unfold the "good information." she will not at all end telling you strategies marvelous Jesus is and that he's the sole thank you to a very happy afterlife. attempting to tell her you do no longer choose for to pay attention that's resembling asking her to no longer alert you while you're approximately to be run over via a prepare. She feels that's her accountability to alert you of the hazards of Hell. Atheists and Wiccans are devil worshipers in her eyes and you heavily isn't waiting to persuade her otherwise. she will not at all appreciate your ideals. it would be comparable to if she have been a pedophile and she or he demanded which you appreciate her ideals approximately infants. you purely does no longer do it. properly, neither will she. It has already reached the element the place her religious ideals have affected your dating. it extremely is going to purely worsen. i think the friendship will ultimately end. you're able to placed it off in case you pick for. you could attempt chatting together with her, etc. you could attempt to set barriers or make religious conversations off limits yet quicker or later you will might desire to flow your separate strategies.

Maybe she has tried it. If she's asking you she values your input. If you give her thoughtful information and she discards it don't put yourself on the spot and make it your problem to resolve. Just be there for her. Or ask her if she's tried hanging upside down from her ankles over a bridge. It probably wouldn't help but it might make her laugh. Maybe that's all she needs.

It could be that since you two are good friends that you automatically think of the same possible solutions. Maybe you should get a third party in on these conversations to try to solve the problem.

She just wants to vent her frustration. As we all know...advice is easier given than received. Even though your advice is probably good advice she, like most of us, really just want someone to listen and understand.

i really don't know..because I'm not psychic or whatevers but maybe you should try to talk to her about how you feel whenever she does that, and she probably doesn't want to make you mad or anything, she just maybe probably already "tried that" or doesn't think it will work. so just think of something to say and if that still keeps on happening then do something about it or help her out.

I think that she is hoping that you will have a new idea that she has not tried. Take that as a complement, she assume you can figure out a unique answer to her problem.
