Often you give advice because you want to help a person in need. But many times, it causes more harm than good.
You think you know better
You wouldn't give advice if you didn't feel that you know more than they do about the situation. If you don't know anything about lawnmowers, as someone who fixes lawnmowers is having trouble. You probably wouldn't give them advice.
It is inappropriate and uncalled for
When you give advice on somebody else's situation can feel very invasive for the receiver. You're telling them what to do and telling them that you know more about their situation, than they do. Even though they are experiencing it firsthand. In life, we've all had many experiences. And some of them may overlap with others. But you only have no part of the situation. You don't understand the person's feelings, how they were raised or how to address issues in general. You can't possibly understand the full scope of their situation unless you are them.
Most people ask for it
Usually, a person goes to a doctor or dentist in need of advice because of their specialty. That's why you also see people asking these specialist questions. People aren't usually afraid to ask for advice when they need it. You can even ask someone if they want advice. Often, people need to vent; sometimes, just talking about what they're experiencing makes them feel better. Your unnecessary tips may make them feel invalidated, like their problems, or their feelings can easily be fixed by whatever you suggest. Usually, the case is not that simple.
You make a person feel incompetent, and they feel lower than you
when you give it unsolicited advice, you're telling the person you know better than they do. They may be experts in their field, and you're still saying you know better than they do. It is incredibly arrogant; anything that you suggest, they probably already tried as well. Most of the time, people try a few things before talking about the problems with somebody else. The information you're giving them is probably straightforward. They probably have heard it before. Maybe they sought tips online. Again, unless you're an expert, your unsolicited advice is just causing more harm than good. You're probably pissing them off. They are less likely to listen to you because your advice feels very intrusive and it's inappropriate. Don't give unsolicited advice; it's not wanted most of the time.
