Fact

Friends can make for good ears, but their advice is not always golden. If your friends have messed up relationships or are bitter man-hating cheerleaders, they might not be the best people to consult about love. (Try friends that are married or in stable relationships). Just the other day I was talking to this sister who told me how things were going great with this guy she was seeing until her friend told her she should put him “on ice” to see if he was really feeling her. Needless to say, going from talking everyday to someone you’re really digging to purposely dodging their calls for two weeks for no good reason other than a friend’s advice didn’t bode well. The relationship went from sweet to sour in, yeah, you guessed it, two weeks.Like I said earlier, it’s good to get an outside perspective on any given situation but at the end of the day only the people involved know the real dynamic.”
