relationship help: why do i give people good relationship advice, but when it comes to my relationships they always end up being bad ones? - Help.com

you give good relation ship advice because you can be less onesided about you advice. when you try it for your self all you think about is making them happy instead of yourself so giving yourdself advice is one sided. Talk to you friends and who ever your with and if you cant i would invest in better friends and better relations, people have to want to make you as happy as you want them to be.
I have had to come to terms with these myself and it is hard because even though you do it for other people when you want to do it you feel selfish but your friends want to help you, especially when you have done so much for them.

People are often less objective about their own relationships than about other people’s. If you really feel badly about your own love life, maybe it would be worthwhile to talk to a professional counselor about it. The might help you see the bad patterns that you are repeating over and over again. Need help finding a counselor? Write us us back and we’ll see if we can suggest something local to you.

people are really good about dishing out advice but not taking it themselves
