:) Sounds like me. I love helping others but can't seem to take my own advice or even ask for it. I think I know why. I, and maybe you, know what many of the right answers are, I know what I should be doing but I don't have the nerve. I have low self confidence, afraid of rejection, you name it so I don't follow my own advice for fear of what might happen. If that sounds like you do what I'm doing. Concentrate on yourself for awhile. Work on your own issues and try to up your confidence in yourself. Then you might be able to trust your instincts more and follow your heart.

I think that is what we call ARROGANT! It's not wrong, but sometimes it can cause you anxiety because u could not share whatever problem that u r having with others (not any others, maybe close and trusted friends). Sometimes (not always) it will make u feel a lot better, just by telling friends about things that bothering u. Of course u shouldn't be telling everything, maybe the not so critical problem. Friends can be a great help, just by listening. I have very few people that I consider good friends, that I can trust. Until now (approx.20 years), I know that my secret is safe with her. U too, should have faith in others, someone that u can rely on, or turn to when things get rough. U need someone to laugh and sometimes cry with you, and that certainly will be GOOD FRIEND!

Because you think you are perfect and better than everyone else.
Not saying that to be insulting. I've felt that way from time to time.
And, people can give you advice, but if it doesn't sound right to you, you're not going to take it. And, that's okay. At least you'll be thinking of other solutions to your problems, and that can only be good.

Most people are like that,it is easy to give advice because we are not personally involved we can be objective.When dealing with our own feelings we can't see what other people see .We let our hearts get in the way or our proud.

I think you are not good taking advice or asking for advice because you admire your own.
So you must think you know the reason so why ask and maybe your afraid that their answer will not match your own advice to your self.

Funny, it's easier to give than receive. I'm the same way. It's called being stubborn
