It is more valuable to receive advice from older friends than from those in the same age.
Some people seem to believe that it is more important to get advice from friends in the same age than from older friends. However, I strongly disagree with them for the following reasons.
First of all, as older friends have more experiences than those who are in the same age of mine, they can provide me with better solution. Living more years than I am, they went to though many different situations. To take my own experience for example, When I had suffered from bad relationship with my boyfriend, I asked one of my friends who was my age. The friend, Ji-Soon actually tried to help me but because of her lack of such a experience, she could not give me proper advice. On the other hand, one of my elder friends, Tae-Won, offered me a good solution when I told her my situation. Like this, since they have various experiences through their lives which are, of course, longer than mine, they can help me with better advice. Therefore, it is more critical to get advice from older friends than from those in the same age.
In addition, because all most of people regard friends at the same age as a competitors, they often do not truely provide them with the best solution while they more often give the younger the best one. Therefore, advice from older friends is more valuable. As for me, when my younger friends had asked me for a help, I tried to do my best. I alway offered them with the best advice of mine. However, when my friends at the same age of mine wanted me to help them with advice, I often did not give them the best one. I did not have to feel like I was their competitior but I usually felt like that. Also, Most of my friends did, too. Considering this, it is safe to conclude that advice from older friends is more valuable than one from friends of the same age.
Taking all thease reasons mentioned above into consideration, I deeply believe that it is more valuable to get advice frim older friends than receive from those in the same age.
