Very interesting topic. When I offer advice to someone, I find that I take it personally if they don't follow it. "Hurt" may not be the right word...but it's the first word that comes to mind. Like Rose, I will still offer help but will try to emotionally detach myself from the outcome or course of action taken by the inquirer.
