Just be yourself?

I was answering another post and almost everyone’s advice to this person was “just be yourself.” Wow, and all this time I was being someone else, thanks for your deep and thoughtful advice! I someone is asking for advice on a ‘subject’ it because being themselves obviously didn’t work. Does anyone else get annoyed when people use stupid clichés to answer questions on Yahoo?

Answer:
Yes! Stupid cliches!! When your asking for advice you want detail - not sum idiotic cliche that you could have read off the back of a cereal box! Be yourself, follow your heart, blahhhhhhhhhhh
Makes my blood boil!

Yes,I agree.
In fact there is a quote that goes like

"Be yourself is the worse advice you can give someone".

If you're a disrespectful rude person or have a certain flaw that needs to be improved,then you should try to improve.

Example:
Billy: Duuuudee! I'm so nervous to go out with Carla

Tom: Oh! Billy just be your self, and everything will go fine.

----Billy and Carla on a date:
Billy: Hey Carla,I really hate the way you dress you should dress sexier and with very short skirts, you know because skirts means easy access, babyyy!

Carla: We're done.

In this case Billy should try to improve himself when it comes to approaching girls, or perhaps say he should try to think before he speaks.

Someone should be themselves when it comes to interest, if you like cats but they don't oh well be yourself and don't be afraid to admit that you like that certain thing.
But, if you have a certain problem that you feel you need to improve, then it should be improved.

..and then again that's just what i think.

It's not just about being yourself but understanding who you're telling it to.You can't just tell someone to be themselves,when that someone likes to touch on the first date, well unless that someone who is dating that other someone likes to me touched.

I wouldn't worry about it, just be yourself and it will be alright

um I don't realy understand your question I strongly belive in being your self trust me you get no where being some one your not so if your getting no where on being some one else or being you it makes way more sense just to be your self and just show your self and just be open I am not saying that because every one else is I am saying this from expeirence
