I need a simple rule to tell me when to use "who" and when to use "whom."

" He is the guy who gives me the advice " who = the guy " He is the guy whom I met the other day " whom = the guy, The difference is ' who ' takes the place as a subject of the clause whereas ' whom ' as an object of the verb ' met '. Also: Who vs. whom
