text: Another reason you might go to more than one person for advice is because they might have more experience than you or others with the situation you're in. You might want to ask a close friend, or someone that has experience at giving good advice. An example of that is when I was fighting with a friend and I had to ask people for help on what I do. I asked my close friends, and another friend because I knew they had dealt with this a lot of times before, and that helped work it out. Also, if a person has more experience with giving advice, they are most likely to help you make the best choice you can make.
