What does that mean? Someone who only gives bad advice?
Gives and just embodies a bad approach to living and interacting with other people.
Who do you want to be opposite of in various ways and why
My mother. She taught me exactly how not to be an adult. She's horrible with money, lost her house, had cars repo'd, got into mlms, didn't know how to handle credit, paid off debt with more debt, and more.
She said to me once recently "you know you just chose a different life path, you chose not to be poor". Uh nope mom, I learned basic financial skills, and I budget responsibility
So, like a bad influence? Pretty much all my friends fill that role for me.
My parents 😂 whatever I can do to avoid their relationship examples
What were the most in-your-face examples of the dysfunction?
Terence Fletcher, nothing's worse than "good job".
