If you love them deeply, you won't. However, you have to keep that silly smirk off your face, too.
-
Well, you don't tell them "I told you so" you need to say it in a loving, compassionate way that is not mean intended. +3

There is no nice way to say "i told you so" to a loved one. The phrase itself makes one look arrogant and a know-it-all. It's better to have the pleasure (in silence) that you were right, but never to shove it in the face of the person who made a mistake.
-
why would you feel the need to? don't you think they are sage enough to know you were right? just smile and smile and grin,you know what i mean and so will they.

hahahahahaahahahahahaah ahhhhhh

We have all been in this situation before. giving advice and its not taken. You have one of two choices. open your mouth and let the words flow out or say nothing. When you say nothing, its double guilt for the other party, simply because you are not saying anything. Does this make sense?
-
is it that important to you to be right ? if so then say hey, i told you so.
-
No, I don't think there is any good reason to tell anyone "I told you so" much less someone you love. +5
-
you don't need to...they will see it on your eyes and they will figure it out...when you love someone deeply you share a conection that goes beyong words.....
-
You should tell them so they will learn from their mistake.
-
You don't. Some people just need to learn things the hard way (or want to learn the hard way) Continue your warnings and after time, this person will begin to see some correlation between your warnings and her consequences. Flat out saying "i told you so" is a bad idea (unless you like sleeping on the couch).
-
They probably already know that you "told them so" and because you love them you don't need to tell them so simply for for your own satisfaction.
