What does it mean when people say you have an ulterior motive?

Answer #1

It means that while you might seem to be doing something for one reason (say, answering a question here) you’re really doing it for another purpose altogether as your primary motive.

I think that most people have many layers of motivation when they do anything, whether it’s on a conscious level or a subconscious one, people are complex as a result, their motivations are, as well.
