Friends who are quick to give advice.

I have the full engineer personality and used to be a fixer. According to research, giving advice when a it was not requested is a warning sign you are not great at relationships. It minimizes the other person’s feelings.

Not being naturally gifted at interpersonal stuff, I follow the Gottman Center blog and it provides good reminders on how to change how I respond to people. I am much more pleasant to be around now.
