Whenever I scasle rotate or move something it also affects an object nearby.

Did you parent the rock thing to the plane?

ffrostheart10  which object are you scaling and which object is scaling with it.  I can't tell in the video.  

Sometimes when you duplicate an object, with Shift + D or Alt + D, they can have different effects

on the object.  Explanation here https://blenderartists.org/t/difference-between-shift-d-and-alt-d/603153 .

Also, make sure you only have the object you want scaled or rotated highlighted.  I know it's common sense,

but sometimes there's something highlighted that you can't see.  If you can, post the .blend file, maybe we can 

do a little investigation.  

No I didn't, none of it's parented, I'm enlarging the plane (particle emitter) but it moves or scales the bottom rock.

I'm scaling the small plane particle emitter within the rock, you can see that it's highlighted when it enlarges.

Sorry for not being clear, it also does it to any other nearby object when I add a new one.

I can post the blend but how would I upload it here?

Use something like Dropbox, one drive or similar and post the link.

ffrostheart10  Just use pasteall.org It was created for the very purpose of sharing Blend files.

Thanks for the suggestion but pasteall only takes up to 30mb, for some reason my file size is a lot higher than this, for a low poly model too, is that normal for it to be around 90mb?

That feels like a huge filesize for what is essentially a very simple scene. You can always just copy the file and throw away everything but the two objects that show this weird problem. This is, in general, a good way to troubleshoot as well.

Try that, it may diminish the filesize so you can post it and we can take a look. :)

Also ffrostheart10 maybe we can see more of your UI as you execute the scale if you can't upload a .blend file. 

We might be able to determine what's going on that way.  

Hey there! Looks to me like you might have proportional editing turned on. You can disable proportional editing by clicking this little icon at the top of the 3D viewport, or by pressing the "O" key!

Let me know if this helps :)

👏🏽 Doh! I should have thought of that. 

Yes I can do that, sorry for being so slow with replies I'll upload it now, I've been busy the past 2 days, apologies

Omg it was that, thank you so much <3 I already finished the project so thank you!
