I'm 48, I have a lot of life experience, some good, some bad.

I was also a Drug and Alcohol Counselor so I have some skills in that area.

Ultimately anyone asking for advice generally will take what they want to hear from posts. A few will accept the hard truth and others will read your post and mull over it for awhile and maybe take it on board.

You never really know if you've helped anyone but if they ask for your opinion, you may as well give it.

I vote that we change the title of the forum to "Looney Bin."

Just decent emotional intelligence, a finely honed b.s. detector, the ability to string a noun and verb together, and a good track record with finding quality partners. If something worked for me, why not share the strategy?

Just curious.
Having an opinion when someone is looking for advice qualifies me and everyone else around here to share what they may know.

Imagine having a real life dilemma and you couldn't go to anybody around you except for anonymous people on the web.

What if nobody spoke up to help you out?
