Sometimes people end up getting the best advice from the most unexpected places. The advice might not even be meant for the person, but it could fit their situation like a glove. A similar thing happened with a man who overheard a conversation between two young friends on a train and it might just have healed him. Jeronimo, who goes by @jeronimoooo0000 on TikTok, took to the platform to share the advice the boy so wisely gave his friend on a random morning.

“A kid on the train just gave his friend some advice but I think he just cured my self-consciousness," Jeronimo shared in the video. “From what I understood, his friend has a crush on a girl, and he can’t really talk to her because he’s scared of what he’ll say or if he’ll ‘sound dumb,’" the man recounted. "Dude, you have to assume that people will like you," the boy wisely suggested. The man thought that the advice was bold but made a lot of sense. "If you don't know them, you have to assume, 'f' them," the boy added. As the man continued to listen in on the conversation, he wondered where the youngster had learned such wisdom. "Did he get that from TikTok?" Jeronimo thought.

"Did he come up with this? I am eavesdropping and he is curing me," he expressed. "He's making me figure out that it's fine. F them or they like you." The man revealed that although he's not insecure, he is quite self-conscious. "I am not an insane person I think," he added. "His friend was like, 'Maybe I'll talk to her dude.' You just got Gandhi's advice over here. You got a sage's wisdom." He shared that the boys are probably on his train three times a week and that from now on he might tell the boy to speak a little louder. "There's no way a 17-year-old could think of this stuff," he remarked, still in disbelief over the boy's brilliant advice.

"I wanted to go and pat his back," Jeronimo went on. "That's helping me. That means you saved me some money with therapy." The video received over 561k views and more than 66k likes. People took to the comments section of the video to share their own experiences. @mailosdiary wrote, "One of my friends told me 'I always assume people like me until they prove otherwise and if they dislike me, that’s their loss.'" @praeriebird commented, "Nah, I'm a teacher, and kids are super savvy these days in psychology, practical things like administrative stuff and even metaphysics."

@bosslikeabuddha remarked, "The kid is spitting facts. It's our pain and rejection that makes us more guarded than necessary. Thanks a million for the post, it's a great reminder." @mikamikii shared, "Another one for work - Assume your audience likes your presentation. Obviously, it can't always be true, but it is most of the time." @88angstroms expressed, "Yup. That's what I always assume and if I realize they don't like me, I just don't take it personally, even if it's personal."
