Oooops. I didn't expect that the friend turned out to end up his friendship with. To follow or not follow the advice is one thing and ending up friendship is another.
Well, that's true in most of the cases. If we give advice with sincerity (if the advice is against their will) people take us as someone who is against them.
when people don't like to hear the harsh truth they hate even the ones who deliver it to them. This is more my understanding of their mindset rather than about one person. This is a mindset a lot of people have. They like having the yesman/ma'am kind of people around them.
