Nobody Wants Advice

Some people ask you for advice,
When what they really want is approval.

People ask you for advice,
When they are really looking for your support.

There are people that ask you for advice,
But what they really want is a chance to complain.

Some people ask you for advice,
When they really don’t want you to do anything but listen.

There are people who ask you for advice,
That are only happy to hear your advice if you agree with them.

There are those who ask you for advice,
When they are actually looking to have you to blame if things go wrong.

But once in a while; once in a great while,
Someone may ask you for advice,
Because they really want your advice.
When that happens, RUN!
