    no idea, i see a lot of life changing questions. I think the good thing is you can reach lot of people in one go if you have aquestion. But often serious questions require serious answers and if a friend came to you with such a question then you would want to know all the facts.

    People ask serious quesions because they want serious answers. If you talk to a friend you get one opinion. If you ask her you may get 3 sacarstic answers, and 15 serious opinions. It is nice to do a 'survery' to see how others would deal with your problems. It helps put things in perspective and make your own decision.

    frist of all here no body really knows who you are its safe and second these people are unbiased most of the time they dont know you from a man in the moon so real answers for the most part. sometimes people have no where else to turn and just need reassuracne without being judged most of the time

    Well I was going sites on the Internet and came to this and it looked like a place you could ask anything.that's the reasons I found this site. so I thought there maybe ppl that could answer a question or two.

    There are questions so serious that if you asked them in public you might have your house burned down. There is an insult unto death. Suicide is group murder be nicer.
