Two sides of a coin called "advice"

I know of someone who communicated to me that he hates getting advice from people and yet offers advice to others. Isn't it interesting that a specific thing such as advice is not being liked when on receiving side of the table but is liked when the same person is on the other side of the table.

Investigating a little bit, I see that it has got nothing to do with "advice" when someone hates it. Its about people. On the other side as we love ourselves so much that we feel elated offering advice to someone else.

The coin called "advice" doesn't have two sides but it is we humans who have multiple sides that make a coin feel bad about itself.
