Do most people ask questions about their love life with an open mind?

Do you think most people deep down already really know the answer, but don't like it?

Yes....I do. My ex treated me like crap and I was always looking for an explaination although I knew the answer all along

Yes, i do think that. I think people are just looking for re assurance that what they think is actually a resonable opinion to have. I must admit, i ask many questions all ready knowing deep down what the answer is. It's to see what other people think about it, get some different [point opf views on issues. I like to do that though, i enjoy hearing about other peoples view points. Hope this helps!

Questions do not always imply a lack of knowledge about the subject matter. When assured of anonymity, human mind tends to play several Games. One of them is to do kite flying about one's pet theory or belief and see which way the wind of general opinion blows.Also, in circumstances where a personal experience is too much controversial to be owned in public, the device of hypothetical question is used as a cover, to elicit others'opinions on the matter. It helps to down play guilt feelings or even the trauma of new found knowledge.
