text: When you are asking someone for advice and you are not quite sure of what to do then you could try asking another friend and they could have the same answer that the first person did and it is very reassuring. For example if you are really upset because you and your friend got into a fight and you dont want to fight with them then you could just ask someone on what you should do and whatever they tell you then you could go ask someone else and if they come to the same conclusion as the other person then you will feel reassured and will follow with that advice. However there is an disadvantage in that if the people you ask come to different conclusions then it can cause you more confusion.
