Reasons are
1. First of all they will not share you the full information. They will share only things that will create sympathy on them.
2. They will not share the mess that was made by them.
3. They don't need any advise from anyone, because they think, they were always correct but still they failed.
4. Most importantly they want to waste your time and to stress you with their problems.
5. And finally they want to control you. Obviously just making you to listen and not allowing to talk or share your view is an act of controlling.
Please stay away from those people. I know the above are commonly seen with Mom and wife, but they are exceptions we have to live with.
Today I had this experience with a man and few months back with another man. Men are not always men!
