I always go with my own perspective. It keeps it more honest and sincere. I often put a great deal of thought into my answers (when the question warrants it). If it happens to coincide with another answer; it just means we share the same point of view.
I never read the answers before I write my own...I only read them afterward. It helps me to gage where I fit into the equation. By the time I push the "Submit" button, my answer may resemble another by default. I don't have to remember what I say, because it is all heartfelt...and it reflects what I feel at the time. I learn as I go.

I asked basically the same question last night... I answered the question "What is the most hurt full thing anybody has ever said to you" or something like that and when I gave an honest answer people thought I was taking the piss out of them... I took that really personally because it is the first time I have actually told anybody about the nasty things my mother sometimes say to me... Truth? We can seem to handle the truth!!! I would love keep it honest with MY answers, but, if I'm going to get my feelings hurt, I'd rather not.... :-)

There are 2 cases:
1. Can't b bothered to answer it. Next question, please...
2. Actually, when I answer a question, I don't look at others' answers before I answer. I prefer to give my own answer no matter it's the same as others or different.

We've all been guilty of "going along with the crowd". It's so much more frightening to voice your true opinion when you think you are in the minority and will set yourself up for ridicule. I have found that to be a falasy. Usually, if I am really passionate about something and say it-then back it up with reason, all of a sudden I notice a SHIFT in popular opinion anyway. Its the people willing to stick their necks out(while not being obnoxious) to be truthful about how they feel that usually become leaders-not followers...

That depends upon what you consider a difficult question. I try to answer with what I believe is the truth. I ask myself if others have more knowledge about the question. If they do, I go with them. If I do, I go with mine.

I am opinionated and not to mention I have never been a follower... I speak my mind and stand on my own two feet .....
If someone doesn't like my opinion, they don't have to just the same as I don't have to allow others to intimidate me... Of course this is done in a tactful Way!

If its something that I really feel passionate about, it doesn't matter what everybody else thinks. I will stick with mine.

I'm MY OWN person. I don't have to look at other's answers. I do my own all the time. ~
