It's because it is easier to be objective when you have an outside view of a relationship. When you are involved you tend to let emotion rule without listening to reason or seeing what is really best for you.

What advice have you given that you can't follow?
Usually we are good at giving others the expected advice; if that advice isn't something we actually agree with in our hearts, we won't follow it if we are confronted with a similar situation.
From experience, I know we don't always do what we think we should do: our passions, desires, whatever, may lead us to choices that we can justify in our own situations ("She's the love of my life" "I felt that destiny led me to this place"), but that we would advise other people to turn away from.
So, I expect you'll be able to follow your own advice if you give it more thought...or, you may decied that it was only good advice because you felt it was something you were expected to believe, not something you really do believe, and your good relationship advice will change!

That's is a good question. It seems at least for me it is easier to figure out someone Else's issues and problems. But when it comes to your own it is hard to be objective. I think it is because your brain most of the time can use common sense and figure out what is right or wrong to do. But when you are thinking about yourself your heart can get in the way even if it is the wrong thing to do.
When you get this figured out let me know.

It's easy to tell someone else to get real! Here's the deal... This happens at all ages.. Our intuition is aways available to us, but we can ignore it too. When a person doesn't no himself or herself, I mean the core of whom they are. They react to all things in life with some fear. Fear makes people close down or act some way that to you seems off.Getting real also makes people uncomfortable so they may laugh or ignore. Whatever.so that they don't have to face reality and that changes are next. Change involves one to look inside oneself start relationship w/ #1. We need too be aware of our behavior,open heart, feel things "in there heart of hearts". To Be authentic! To be vulnerable means to be real to yourself. This take courage to do.. Sounds like a lot of work? Not a place they want to go. That my friend is the place we all need to be. The world would be very different. Most people never get here or even know what I'm saying. I'm writing 2 books presently about this. Good Luck... Lucky
Be true to yourself! Live your dreams.....

Because your advice to others is emotionally tied to their best interest..you love them. You are too emotionally tied to the situation to love yourself with good advice. Divorce yourself from feelings for the object of your affection and deliver advice to the situation at hand. Write it down if you get mentally crowded doing this and read it back to your spirit. You'll be OK. We all go thru this. But, be wise to listen to your own advice.

Everything is easier said than done. It doesn't take a lot to tell someone what they should do, especially when there are no repercussions for you. Its harder to do yourself because the consequences will actually affect you.

How can you say that it is not being followed? Some folks can only say what they don't have the power to do themselves and wish they can do what needs to be done

You are hoping things will change. Sometimes if you look at a problem as if it is your friends you may see the answers and mistakes, You may not want to face reality.
