"The only question to ever ask anyone is why?
Just why?
Answering a question with a question gets answers out of anyone else but you so you avoid the question posed to you.
Try it and see."
I frequently ask why in various ways. People find it annoying though. |

I mean we could be here all day. Sometimes specific Qs are better followed by a probing 'why is that do you think'?! |

Because often people don't like to be questioned on their opinions or motives. I ask because I'm interested in how they formed their views or what has led them to a particular point in their life and they see it as me challenging them.
I also ask why because I genuinely want to find out more about them or a particular subject they're knowledgeable about |

.
I gave our son a book in which I'd stuck loads of post-it notes with questions such as 'why?' and 'how do we know this?' for my own reference and to go back to later. One of his friends asked who'd written the notes, when he said it was his mum the friend said
"That explains everything! Now I know where you get it from"

Do you think the answer would change depending on the animal and where it is in the food chain?
Absolutely."
Which animal(s) would you choose to ask? |

‘Why?’ Is the question I would ask of one particular person. I suspect the answer would be disappointing, because I doubt this person can conceptualise the lasting damage their actions caused. Also, I would never allow myself to be anywhere near them to ask, so it’s moot. But why? It’s a question that has haunted me for almost eight years now. I suspect it will haunt me for the rest of my life. |

"What’s the question you want to ask most? To whom and why?
I'd ask myself why it's so difficult to make a change, because I can't do this *again* and it sucks. "
Ohhhh.. you are in a cycle of rinse and repeat. Change is really difficult, it takes effort and we face uncertainty and new challenges.
Ask yourself this question "does this make me happy". If yes, keep going.
If no, the next question is "do I want to CHOOSE to be happy". If the answer is no "I'm choosing to be unhappy", keep going.
If the answer is "yes, I chose to be happy" then you need to make a decision that takes you on the happiness path. Keep testing/ asking. Keep adjusting. Learn to say no - you can justify your actions, by saying out loud - I'm choosing to be happy
Happiness is a choice - always remember that. We choose to be happy or we choose to be unhappy. And then every decision we make reflects this decision.
There's a great video somewhere of monkeys repeatedly putting their hands through a hole to pick up food. The only way to withdraw their hand is to release the food. Even in danger, they don't release the food and so get trapped. Don't be a monkey -release the food and choose to be free / happy |

So this is rumination.. and ruminating with no resolution is destructive and negative and holds you in this place you find yourself.
In the words of Elsa "let it go, let it go".
The other person is getting on with life. The only person it is now impacting is you.
It's hard to do, but you will breathe deeper. Don't let them have that hold over you for the rest of your life -in effect you are binding yourself to them forever - what power you are giving them.
Learn to let it go (said with the deepest of love and care) |

No, I don't although it might for a few.
I suspect that people who don't understand or think that swinging is bad will say that unresolved trauma is the reason though because 'normal' people who've led 'ordinary'lives wouldn't do something like that |

Plenty of trauma got at least 2 books worth already. But no I don't unresolved trauma played a part in exploring swinging. Quite the opposite for me at least resolving the trauma did. |
