Very true and well put Vinay… First I too had a hearty laugh after reading your initial lines … just by imagining you laughing on those faces :D :P …
And you have used these words ‘sharing , similar experiences, helping .. ‘ which makes the positive side of the coin named advice. Yes this is the type i can relate to :)

In reply to Kokila Gupta. He he he :D .. My dislike goes to the Experts :D .. Yeah that's there too, it kinds gives an emotional uplift to a highly insecure person and the type who take pleasure in someone else's misery. It is interesting to see how emotions work in such multitude of ways. Kinda fun and kinda creepy too :D ..

In reply to Kokila Gupta. Thank you Kokila. I thoroughly enjoyed writing this post :). Kinda fun remembering all those faces while writing this one. I must admit, quite a lot of them came to my mind and a couple of times I even stopped writing to smile and a couple more for a hearty laugh :D .. I completely agree and have total respect to this approach Kokila. I keep finding myself too small to give out any advice to anyone. The one thought that keeps driving me though is that I can try and think of a story or a similar experience in my life which I can share with and maybe share my understanding as well. This way if there is anything at all that is useful, then it would be a great advice. If not, it will still be a wonderful story with some laughs :). I think giving advice is a very tricky thing. If only more people thought like you, life would have been so much simpler :)
