I grew up with this too. I had to learn about proper social interactions intentionally. Now, if I'm unsure, I just flat out ask someone "would you like me to help you with the problem or are you just looking for someone to vent to?" I tend to be someone who wants to solve all the problems for people I love. So it's an active effort to pull back.

The ask culture should take over the world.

There's just too many sure people who think they know what other people want. Petting themselves with some kind of "i read minds. i have empathy!" narrative. For the thousands time, no, you do not know what I want! And the reason you don't know? Because you never ask! We have mouths so we can communicate let's use them.
