I'M WONDERING WHERE IT COMES FROM....?

Why do people give un-solicited advice? It always comes across as if they are telling you what to do and how to run your life. I always wish I could say, if I wanted your opinion, I would ask for it.
But how do you say that to someone? What if a person is being rude? Do you confront them or just be passive & let it slide by?
Certain people I think I'm more confrontational with. Others, I just let their pile of b.s build up until i cant stand it & then vent to a friend with similar circumstances.
I know we all think we have the answers to everyone else's life & problems. But we actually DONT.
I know sometimes I give advice....but its usually in good spirits. I just dont appreciate it because I'm nearly 30 years old & still have people trying to tell me how to run my life. Or trying to make plans for me, without any consideration of what I may want or NOT want to do.
So for those who may read this....maybe consider what you are saying to someone the next time you offer any "advice". And I'll be sure to watch my mouth as well :)
