There is a section in the Divorce Remedy that explains that. I don't know if I have it exactly right but basically:

1) Your friends just want to see you happy and *think* they are giving good advice

2) Your friends' notions about marriage are influenced by Hollywood.

3) Your friends are not invested in your marriage. They see the pain, but don't see what keeps you going

Bottom line, use your friends for support, but not for advice.
