Ever notice how everyone else has the answer for your issue?
No matter what it is; realtionship, business, love, angst, etc. You explain your issue and in that conversation there'll be at some point a declaritive statement from that person saying "this is what you should do!"
I think Gian-Carlo Rota, the famous MIT mathmetician, said it best..."the advice we give others is always the advice we need to follow most."
