The other day I asked my friend a question and she gave me a lecture that went way beyond what I was asking her. It was condescending and unwanted advice, and I found myself blurting out "I don't need a lecture, I just asked a question." So, I know what you mean...it's hard not to snap.

I forget to to say “thank you” or even acknowledge what someone said. Oh and I got that same lecture a few times myself.
I try to remember the proper response but I do forget. Another thing is If I do something for someone, I am not looking for anything in return, which is not an issue. But if someone does something for me there is some kind of reciprocal response required from some which completely goes over my head. When confronted with this, that get me mad.
