What was it and why did you regret it?

As for me, had a friend come to me for relationship advice once. His girl had recently broken up with him and he wanted to get back together with her. I was hesitant to give him good advice in the first place after he told me about how he treated her and how he cheated on her once or twice during their relationship. I decided to give him some solid advice anyways and they ended up getting back together a few weeks later only for her to cheat on him shortly after and for them to break up for good.

I never really give advice. I just comment on situations. If they ask me what they should do, I'll be like if you do this, such and such could happen, but this could also happen so keep that in mind. I like to give them two scenarios that could pan out just so they can't blame me if they decide to listen to what I said. As far as relationship advice, stay out of it. Don't even bother.

Only advice I regret giving is to platonic female friends about men. I wasn't enough of a savage to tell them that they were never getting wifed because they lacked the emotional and aesthetic characteristics necessary to get the types of dudes they went for.

Dirty mack game on a hundred, thousand, trillion tho

I talked one of friends into staying with his GF, instead of leaving her for another chick.

Flash forward a couple years, they got married, she cheated, found out his daughter wasn't his, and got rekt in the divorce.

Whoops

That's not your fault b.

I'm pretty good at knowing that people will click or not, friendships or relationships. I gave a female friend the nod to go out with a dude I went to college with. They dated and got married, kids and everything. I legit thought son was a solid stand up dude, but she hit me up one day and informed me that son was cheating. I don't know the whole story tho. They may have gotten back together, I lost contact with her.

Very few things bother me more than when you give a recommendation or piece of advice on something and the person comes back later and blames you for something

I stopped giving advice. I just say "that's crazy" and keep it moving whenever someone tries to hit me up with something heavy

Depending on how you say "thats crazy" there is no situation where it would not work.

Im in the business of not giving advice, just listening and pointing out that they already know what they really want to do.

Not your fault. It's on him for not doing his due diligence + marrying her in the first place.
