text: I think having multiple people with multiple opinions can help a lot, because a lot of people could have the same experience that you had before, but if they did not then that's something different but I also think it's based on the person who is giving you advice, for an example if you had a funny or silly friend who is always your best pal but yet you come across a situation that is serious and you come to them for advice and they still act kind a funny with it I would say that's not the best person to come to, but if it was a more serious and chill type of friend I would go to them to get the best result but that's just me. Again not everyone has a best answer but what you hear off of them can help you make the better choice.
