With the slow process of internalizing RP principles, my interactions with people around me are starting to change, especially with my friends.

Last night, a group of friends (all male) and I were chilling at my apartment when the topic of dating and potential partners come up. My friend, X, brought up his issues with this one chick who is 100% treating him as an orbiter for like the 5th time this month. I keep my mouth shut while the other guys in the group give him typical, BP advice. X looks at me and asks what I think. I do my best to be tactful and say, "Listen, X, ima be honest with you: she's not interested in you."

After what felt like an eternity of stunned silence, X said, "Well, to be honest with you Mr. Basic, I'm not going to listen to someone who's treating women like objects. How many women are you talking to right now? Three? Pick one before talking to me."

I shrug and say, "I'm having a hard time deciding. I can share one of them with you. I don't mind."

Before X replied, someone else in the group jumped in and diffused the situation, but the paradigm of the group has definitely shifted and I know I'm being ostracized. All because I'm finally seeing the real way the world is set up.

That leads me to my question: do I just not say anything when asked for my opinion/advice? I don't want to BS and give shitty, BP advice, but giving actual advice seems to backfire. How do you handle it?

Thanks.

TL;DR: Friend complains about being treated as an orbiter and asks for my advice. I give it to him straight and it backfires. Moving forward, do I keep my mouth shut when asked for advice?
