Free Advice

I remember reading in Bhagavad Gita that Krishna tells Arjuna never to give unwanted advice... Nobody appreciates it.... It's true, if you give unwanted advice, you'll only kill the relation and incur some bad vibes, while the person continues doing what they like...
Of course, it would be a different matter if we are in the position of duty/authority to dole out such advice.. Parents can't watch children do wrong things and not advice/correct them...
But generally, between friends, unwanted advice never works out.

But in my life, I have even come across people who actually ask you explicitly for your advice, but then still have ego problems/hatred for you if you say something they don't like. Now that is a very weird situation. I find it difficult to lie. I don't like to lie. So if someone asks me for advice/input, I can't just mislead them so that they love me but ruin their life. I would rather speak the truth & give the warning when asked.
But sadly, some people don't know what they want out of life. They have a tremendous ego which needs self-gratification. So when they ask for advice, perhaps there is an underlying presumption/desire that I should sing the music that they like to hear. If I say something different, they are ready to kill the relation, since their selfish self is more important.
I do not really expect them to adhere to my advice, it is 'take it or leave it'.  So I would be very happy if they can just leave it and stay normal. But for them, they have to crush it, dissect it, talk stupid emotion, and finally get angry/guilty/jealous/egoist/revengeful/competitive (I do not clearly understand the emotions involved) because deep inside them, they know I am right..
I have never harboured an ego of 'Yay I was right all along', but I do realize that the other person develops an inferiority complex of 'O my God how dare she be right'....
This kind of situation is very stupid, very shallow, may God never place anyone in this kind of situation...
It is painful to watch a loved one do stupid things, when you know that you are wiser/right, and you know that they will hurt themselves in the coming time..
Such a person is like a spoilt child, it is amusing to watch them try to fly off to heights with their ego inflated like a balloon. And you can actually see them travelling right into the sharp pin of life...
Such a person is like a spoilt child, only that they are much more difficult to deal with, and the stakes are higher in their life. God knows whose lives they crash into a doom along with their own. Only that when an adult knowingly behaves like a spoilt child, they may be thought to be shameless selfishe entities.
