In which case that person WAS actually helpful in making up the person's mind, just not in the way they'd hoped. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-someone-asks-for-your-input-then-go-do-the-complete-opposite#post-2294886 Fri, 18 Sep 2015 12:30:30 +0000 cascademom 2294886@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@lovehoneybee: I do this to my husband too.

"What do you think about this shirt with these pants?" "I think you look nice!" "....I think I'm going to change." I don't know why I bother answering. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-someone-asks-for-your-input-then-go-do-the-complete-opposite#post-2294801 Fri, 18 Sep 2015 11:48:16 +0000 snowjewelz 2294801@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@LuLu Mom: Yeah... I mean they obviously can do whatever they want. But when I put so much thought/research into an answer for you it's just annoying to see them literally turn around and do the exact opposite! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-someone-asks-for-your-input-then-go-do-the-complete-opposite#post-2294798 Fri, 18 Sep 2015 11:47:19 +0000 snowjewelz 2294798@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@lovehoneybee: that I get! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-someone-asks-for-your-input-then-go-do-the-complete-opposite#post-2294766 Fri, 18 Sep 2015 11:07:38 +0000 LuLu Mom 2294766@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I feel like it's an opinion not a command, but it does irk me. I think the worst is they already have their mind made up, you disagree and they fight you on it, then WHY ASK! I'm not going to agree with you just to agree if you ask fro an honest opinion. My BFF doesthis, and then it never fails "man I should have done it the other way" </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-someone-asks-for-your-input-then-go-do-the-complete-opposite#post-2294749 Fri, 18 Sep 2015 10:55:17 +0000 lovehoneybee 2294749@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I do this with my husband, sometimes...sometimes I just need to hear someone else's opinion to solidify my own decision. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-someone-asks-for-your-input-then-go-do-the-complete-opposite#post-2294748 Fri, 18 Sep 2015 10:55:14 +0000 pui 2294748@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It annoys me more when someone asks for advice, but when you try giving some they just fight you about how it's not going to work for whatever reason. Seriously, why did you even ask then? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-someone-asks-for-your-input-then-go-do-the-complete-opposite#post-2294744 Fri, 18 Sep 2015 10:48:02 +0000 avivoca 2294744@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It irks me to no end.
