Why do people think it's inherently bad to "get involved" with other people's things?
I often have this happen to me when someone is evidently struggling or just not having a good time. And I know how to fix the issue, or how to help. For example, someone had an argument, I know the other side of the argument because I speak to the other person and can EASILY resolve the issue as it's just a miscommunication thing, but often get "it's none of your business", or "you always try to get involved when I try to explain. So they get angry. Why do so many people think it's inherently bad to get involved with things? Like, I'm choosing to use my effort and time to help you and you're complaining? What can do I say in response to this?

Often, I've found that many people don't want to understand or they don't want to be helped. Don't offer anything until they ask. I promise you, no one likes a "know-it-all." I'm a Christian and I like to talk to people about the Lord Jesus Christ, but often God will stop me before I say a word, because He is telling me this person is not meant for me to help, but He is sending someone else. Now, if He wants me to help, then God has the Scripture in my mind and He even speaks through me. When you surrender your life to the Lord, it is totally amazing how God will use me to communicate to others.

I know what you are talking about. I always suppress my urge to get involved though I want to help just like you.
