It gets on my nerves too.
I wanted some words that people use for swearing that aren't actual curses, and loads of people advised me to count to ten, and to take control etc etc, but I needed the list for an essay, not because I have trouble swearing!!
Grrrr

I assume you're talking about when you ask for advice, but the person either gives you advice on something you're not asking about or goes off on another tangent.
Quite simply, human beings are ego-centric. When we hit puberty our ego centricism comes back full force, and not all of us properly learn how to empathize and think extrovertly. So generally speaking our unconscious is asking ALL THE TIME "How does this relate to ME?" and we don't have enough conscious awareness that we're doing this to focus on the other person.

Because it is a problem for them. They can not fathom someone living with the issue and it preys upon their mind.
Peace!

Perhaps they see a potential problem that you cannot see, being too close to the issue.

Some people just can't be happy unless they feel that they are better than someone else. By offering help they are trying to show that they are better off than you.

Some people have nothing better to do than mind OTHER peoples business.
