I have a friend who constantly complains about acne marks on social media. They keep talking about products, but it seems like none of them actually work. What should I do, how should I explain this situation to them? I also have acne issues, but I donât want to be that open.
I think youâve taken on too much too, let him handle it himself ![]()
I used to have an old friend like that, always buying new creams but nothing ever changed. Later I found out that she wasnât actually using them regularly at all. Is she doing the same thing, I wonder? ![]()
If you find it disturbing that he talks about so many things, why donât you ask him too? Maybe he does it so he doesnât feel the need to explain all the time.
@kahvebitmeden could be right, they once mentioned that they bought a product and then left it, but I didnât pay much attention to it.
@biseydiycem but friendship requires a bit of support. You say âlet it go, let them learn on their own,â but maybe they really need help ![]()
Skin products have individual effects; if they are acting based on what they see on social media, there is a high possibility of misdirection. I suggest they see a dermatologist, otherwise they might be wasting their money.
This title seems strange to me, you also say âI donât want to be that openâ but expect that from others. I think everyone has their limits, donât be so rule-bound.
Maybe sheâs just tired of trying so many products, and if sheâs telling something, she might secretly want to hear your opinion. Just ask her directly, âArenât these working for you?â and see what she says. Plus, if she explains what she has tried, you can find a path for your own problem.
