I was perusing the FB soaping groups this morning. Yesterday, someone shared her experience with a batch of soap and also a picture of the end result. When someone commented some advice, the OP seemed to feel like she was being criticized and that the commenter was "mean" and that it was rude to make such a comment when OP was just looking to "share the experience." To the OP, getting "unsolicited advice" was rude.
I have seen a similar reaction here (advice being perceived as rudeness or arrogance) on occasion, so, I'm curious about your opinion. If someone shares an experience but doesn't ask for help, is it rude to offer advice?
