Because her advice included clients. It also includes just flirting around which could mean that you are hitting on people that are already in a relationship (which is what happened). Its not like she said: Well if you fall in love with someone even if they are your co-worker show it to them. No she was more like: Just flirt with clients. The other examples have him at least try out something new which in turn can make his life better even if he does not find love. If he knows himself better and looks out for himself then he will make his life better and maybe makes him interesting for others. If he finds a hobby he may finally live a life outside of just work, meet more people (even if they are not love interests) and thus gain more experience.

Astrid was like: Do as you always do, just randomly flirt with clients too..even if that might destroy your business if it goes wrong..
