For example in the gym. I sometimes see these guys who obviously have no idea what they're doing and I wonder if I should help them. Today I saw this skinny older looking guy who was benching 40kg with bad form and very little range of motion. I don't think he'll get stronger and he'll likely end up with joint problems. At the very least it just seems like a waste of time for him to do such shitty exercises. I wondered if I should give him some advice but I'm not a qualified trainer and I don't want to be the asshole who gives unsolicited advice to people minding their own business.
I also think about this when I see foreign tourists who look lost. If they ask me for help, I'll gladly help them but I don't want to assume they're lost because they of the way they look. When I was in the states I had people offer me help probably because I'm asian in a town of white people, even though I've been living there for a few years already. I appreciated the gesture but it sometimes got annoying when people just assume shit about you.
I have a friend who always gives unsolicited life advice to people even if nobody asked for it. Shit gets annoying
Do you give advice/help to people even if they don't ask for it?
