Why do certain people feel the need to tell others what to do and how?

Why am I asking this question? Because my friend(s) keep on telling me how to do things, etc., and I'm getting fed up...

Do you do this? Why / Why Not?

Yes, it's annoying. I guess some people feel the need to intrude on other peoples lives. Believe me, It lasts until you're 100 years old. I am 30 yrs/old now and people still tell me what to do!

Just tell your friends to stop telling you what to do. I know it's annoying I'm 21 and live at home with my parents so I know the feeling. I can't confront them about it because they're going to do it regardless but I am saving up so I can move out.

Well, since you're asking...

Maybe they care for you and you are making foolish decisions.

You sound young...if I could do it over again I would find an older person/mentor that I could trust to help me. If you did find someone like this it would give you confidence and it would give you discernment in evaluating advice.

Get off your pity wagon and start thanking them.

They are giving you the benefit of their eyes and experience.

Soon enough that will stop.

Will you be better off?
