Asking Questions?

Question:Why do we ask questions that we dont have the answer to,thinking that someone else,a stranger, might have a better answer than we ourselves who were wondering about the question??? Why can't we just think of our own answer to things? Are we ashamed of what other people will think? Or is it just a way of life???

There can be a lot of reasons for this. Sometimes we do it to seek validation that our answers are at least accepted by other people, but I think the most important reason is because other people have had other experiences, knowledge, and perspectives, so seeking information from them can help broaden our knowledge base. Even if we don't agree with the answers, we at least have received a little more information in some form or another.

Humans are social and in like all things, we trade information like we trade materials. This doesn't mean that we can't make things ourselves or come up with ideas on our own, but we have much richer experiences and greater knowledge when we do (trade).

as you know .. you have a better view when you are out of the issue ..
so you let others who are out of the issue to help urself get an answer that is quite unbiased and satisfactory .. :)

maybe i was rite , maybe i was wrong ..

hani is right..

There are many who are afraid to come up with answers; others cannot think of any. I for one prefer the human bond of sharing. I can only come up with what I can come up with and I know that someone might find a different but just as true answer.

If I have the answer to all my life's problems, I wouldn't be living such a trash life right now. My problem is I don't. Everyday I encounter situations where we are not taught on how to deal with in by our teachers nor does the answer to those problems are available in the text book.

Its something we have to learn ourself, and so I ask questions online sometimes, hoping that someone who had experience those situation before, roughly have an idea on how should I deal with those situation.

If people could think of the answer on their own, then nobody would suffer from depression, for example, simply because everyone will know how to deal with it without needing to seek help.

No matter who we are or how stranger we all are at here, we're all still the same, we're humans. And everyone's life experience is always useful to someone else.

The man is talker,and need an interlocutor,someone taking part in a conversation.A discourse can expand one's perception of the world.
There's no ultimate answers,neider the best one.We just choose some compatible whit our reality

We don't have all the answers all the time and there are people out there who are more experienced in life, who could lead me to my answers. It's as simple as that.

Seeking answers to that which we do not know is perfectly natural. Another person may have a viewpoint or opinion that we never thought of, and it can lead us in a new direction. Even if we already have an answer, there's nothing wrong with finding out other opinions--it broadens your knowledge, and gives you alternatives.

Ask your self why you asked us this question.
