text: Asking only one person for advice would limit your options by a ton. Resulting in a lacking complexion to the problem. You would not have much evidence about the situation. Nor being specific about the task at hand if you only have one person to talk to. You would not know if that person is speaking with truth or not because you don't have consent to anyone else. You may not know if that person is willing to give you good or bad advice, but you can easily identify that with their body language. An example would be someone nervously sweating, hyperventilating, pacing back and forth, inconsistent eye contact, and stuttering if caught in a lie.
