"Don't do what I did"
Or they all hate their wives. (Or you hate all their wives)
Basically the manosphere
Have an acquaintance that is single and went through a messy divorce. Still tries to give unsolicited advice to everyone. Donβt tell people to clean their room if yours is perpetually messy.
Depends on the advice. If they're talking about their mistakes, that can be informative. But, if they discuss their mistakes and then say "... and this is what you should do, instead", that's just unproven speculation on their part.
But, at the end of the day, relationship advice is mostly useless, because only the most general advice works for everyone. The specific issues between two, complex people can't be understood and advised for by listening to one side of the story for a few minutes.
Advice so bad, we both turned into different people.
I have the burden of knowledge that I can not use for myself.
The best drug advice always comes from people who don't do drugs...
