    Why is it that when people find themselves in the same situation as other they feel more comfortable rather than doing it independently. For example parking somewhere they aren't supposed to because they see 7 other cars parked there, staying out late because their friends will get in trouble too, etc.

    Is there a science behind it? Where does that comfort come from? Can u do anything about it? What's ur opinion???

    Herd mentality. Try the Philosophy forum.

    It should actually be in the psychology forum. Look up deindividuation.

    Look up Nietzsche—a whole lot more enticing.
