By "support" I don't mean actually solve a problem they have. I get how unsolicited advice might be taken the wrong way by some people. I mean more like when I meet someone anywhere that gives people the time of day, they're always the type of person that doesn't get along with supportive people. As in, they complain about something and I tell them "sorry about that" they say "no you're not" or "you don't care". Or they complain via public Facebook post, and, because I'm not close to them, I simply reply with a sad or angry emoji, whichever is more appropriate. Their response is to either un-friend me or block me. That, or send me a nasty-gram saying that I'm "stalking" them by clicking an emoji button on one post.
You might say "good riddance" but when I go somewhere, there's usually only like one person in the proverbial "room" that reciprocates or accepts any cordial/friendly behavior. Not that I'm approaching and introducing myself to everyone I see, just those that I see being friendly to others when it isn't their job to do so. Like the guy / lady who holds doors open for people, or maybe lets you know there's a free credit they didn't use on the jukebox or one of the arcade games.
That same person ends up being the one who openly complains about things that they don't want any kind of support for.
