i agree ... to a certain extent. I think that why it is obviously much easier for 'real life' friends to offer advice about such issues because they know you and your bf/gf personally. However, seeking advice from other USMers can be useful because it may help you too look at the situation in a different way or perhaps help you to understand what your bf/gf may be thinking. Besides, often people simply want to talk their problems out to help get it off their chest rather than actually searching for an answer  |

I think if people explain their situation good enough they can get very good advice... and even if it's not the best advice, it's comforting to know other people tried to help you and understand what you're going through.  |

I think the best advice comes from person who has already been through the situation another is struggling with....I dont think they have to be close friends or know the bf/gf...a stranger is not blind to see what's really going on...but one who knows both gf/bf may let emotions get in the way and their whole view of that person can get in the way of seeing what the problem really is. So I think advice is only best when it comes from those with experience. Ok...reading this over it doesnt make much sense to me...sorry I just said what I thought.  |

L.G. dun worry you make sense =D ... and you've got a good point ! but still, ins't it better if the stranger at least knew the personality of the bf/gf ? and Krazy Kitter I really agree with the comforting part =) but hope we don't mess it up instead of helping lolz ;p ... Bahraini Prince |

Not really cause I feel the more you know someone the better chance you have of letting other feelings get in the way...when we get to know someone we perceive them and always think of them as who we made them out to be...and i always find I can give better advice to people I dont know too well than to those I do...cause when it comes to my friends I know them too well and that gets in my way and I end up giving them bad advice. hmmmm....I'm so confused now...hehehe |

well you can get ideas.. but no one knows what the exacts in a relationship except the people within it.... i've seen people say that people should get a divorce.. there is alot more what hasen't been said before it comes down to that exacts... i try to avoid(actually i never) ask people about my personal relationship... know one knows exactly who we are enough to give advice on us...  |

I dunno. You can get a feel for the types of people by just the descriptions given about the person. You don't need to know someone if you really think abhout it. Because-- do you really KNOW anyone?  |

Sometimes the best advice comes from people who don't know either party involved. besides, it's just general advice..something to give the person asking the question something to think about and usually comes from people who have been in simular situations.  |

yes I totally agree..I can not believe out of the million posts posted per day, there are at least THOUSANDS in the Advice column asking such questions "My boyfriend doesn't love me anymore!" "My girlfriend ditched me! What should I do?" IM SICK AND TIRED OF SEEING THESE POSTS REPEATED OVER AND OVER AND OVER AGAIN.....lol.....You gotta check the Psychic column as well..I truly feel sorry for our Sur5r. Geez people if you have a problem would you at least make sure it wasn't repeated a gazillion times already! *phew*...lol

well it is hard, since when they do ask advice, you often only hear one side... NO WHAT I MEAN VERN?  |
