Yeah, I guess it's also annoying because I spent years learning and researching about dogs and responsible dog ownership. And I spent years working with a trainer to train my service dog and spent money learning how to train the dog myself. I invested a lot of time and money into my knowledge, and while I don't mind advising someone, it just feels like she comes to me for every little thing and can't just look anything up herself.
She wants all this advice and knowledge for free, and that bothers me. I know she is on a fixed income, but even when she is presented with free options to learn what she needs to learn, she just ignores it.
I feel like she comes to me expecting me to fix her problems instead of figuring out how to solve them herself.
I don't want to unfriend her, I just need to figure out how to politely decline to give her any more advice.
