While there are some valid questions on here it still baffles me why anyone would take any advice from a total stranger when they ask a question like ';should I get a divorce?'; or whatever.Why does everyone ask for personal/family/relationship advice from total strangers on YA?
Because sometimes it's good to get an outsiders point of view and opinions. Someone who doesn't know the people involved on a personal level. Sometimes it helps to just get things off your chest and sometimes a person who answers may have an answer that the person asking had never even thought of before.Why does everyone ask for personal/family/relationship advice from total strangers on YA?
neutral 3rd parties sometimes have the best things to say in a given situation. advice is diff from info and opinion. ultimately, it's the asker's choice to follow the advice/info/opinion offered or not.
they would like to know the opnions of others, duh.
It's due to the fact that you do not know the person that is answering and they do not know you.
In other words I am unbiased outsider to a persons question.
For instance if you ask a question about a certain relationship that you are in. I can truelly answer you.
However if that person asks somebody they know; that person might not want to hurt them, have a hidden objective, just agree with them, might be biased towards his/her spouce, or might judge them.
Yes, I could easily judge them too, however I have forgotten all about them 5 minutes later.
In other words it is a lot easier to be judged by somebody you don't know then somebody you do.
How do you know they are ';taking'; the advice? Maybe they are simply exploring their options by seeking the opinions of unbiased people outside of their relationships. Sometimes it is difficult to talk to people you know, particularly if the situation is embarrassing.
coz pple here dont know you, so they give you a neutral answer friends will be very judgemental or might just tell you what you want to hear coz they know you.
Because it is an advice. From many sources, the person can choose a best answer.
Because they will get honest answers to questions rather than the friends who will have a biased judgment simply because they know you. This is bare bones answers that are nothing but what folks feel without any of the baggage that the asker knows about. We give them our feelings and the asker can weigh out what they want and make a decision based on a lot of different opinions rather than a limited few. It makes a good sounding board for those who need advice and help. Good question!!!
There r some situations where v feel unbalanced so a helping hand from some strangers may also help us in such situations to deal with d problem.
Afterall A STRANGER MAY ALSO B A FRIENDna.........who thinks of us better than us.
