| Oct 4, 2017 at 14:20 | comment | added | OldPadawan | I would also have VTC as Unclear what you're asking over Too broad / Opinion-based. But still... Although the (roughly) spirit of the question (relationship / truth / expectations...) can give good material for a nice Q, this isn't a nice Q as the convoyed ideas are... imprecise? +1 for @Beofett comment | |

| Oct 4, 2017 at 14:00 | comment | added | Beofett | I don't dislike the perspective of the OP. I suspect "too lazy" wasn't the best phrasing, but still, I can understand where they're coming from. However, I would also have voted to close. I would have chosen "Unclear what you're asking", over "primarily opinion based", but I think both are valid close reasons. "Unclear" seems better to me, but "do you think my girlfriend's response was weird?" is very much "opinion based". Also, don't forget that not everyone who voted to close necessarily picked the same close reason. If multiple reasons are picked, only one is displayed. | |
| Oct 4, 2017 at 13:51 | comment | added | English Student | I consider it important to use the appropriate close-reason and to use close-reasons accurately @apaul34208 but many Stack Exchange users including many users here on IPS have tended to see the close-reason as rather less important than the need to close a question. When I raised the problem of inaccurate close reasons months ago on English.SE somebody commented: "who cares if the close-reason was misapplied, it's more important to close the question; and now it is closed, unless it's a great question, we won't bother to vote to reopen." (paraphrase; the user later deleted his comment.) | |

| Oct 4, 2017 at 3:55 | comment | added | Monica Cellio | So, you've talked with the close-voters and know that people just "didn't like the perspective"? Your post would be more constructive if you dropped the baseless accusations and just asked what was wrong with the question if you don't understand a closure. | |
