text: When asking for advice, people will have plenty different takes on what will happen. This may cause someone to bring a new opinion into your head. This could be a good thing or a bad thing depending on how you take it. If you handle it well you can more likely understand the other persons point of view on the activity. Something else a person can do is convince you to change your mind. Now this can be a big one because they could tell you a story or a myth about how something could go wrong, because grant it people are less likely to go somewhere or do something if they hear a horrifying story or myth.
