text: When you ask for the opinions of others it can help you understand different points of view in your situation. Not just where you're coming from, but how others involved in the situation might see things. That can be extremely helpful to make sure your not hurting anyone or looking over a vital piece by making your decision. Also, other people have different thought processes, so they might think of an option that you haven't yet. This gives you an entirely different way of thinking about things. Talking to different people adds sparks of creativity to your decision, and opens your mind to understand that things might not have to be black and white.
