text: Bias can be bad or good; depending on your point of view. But when looking for advice, you have the chance to choose the best advice to follow, so why not take it? Asking more than one person for advice will give you a variety of different opinions, and all you have to do, is choose the one that floats your boat, while asking one person only won't give you that much of an option. In special cases though, Everyone will give you the same advice, and if that happens, you just have to go with it. I once had this friend who was having issues with his girlfriend, he then asked one of his friends for advice, he took it, and didn't ask anyone else, they broke up the next day. A year later, he had a new girlfriend, and was having issues with this one too. He went to many people for advice and took the one that best floated his boat. They are still together today.
