That One Thing
There's one thing they do that gets you every single time. You know exactly what it is — you thought of it before you finished reading this sentence.
Twelve questions about that one thing. Whether it's actually the thing is the part worth knowing.
The 12 questions
- How long has this particular thing bothered you?
- Does it bother you as much on a good day as a bad one?
- Have you actually told them it bothers you?
- When you did raise it, what happened?
- If a friend did the exact same thing, how would you feel?
- What goes through you in the moment it happens?
- Is it the act itself, or what you think it says about them?
- Do you mention it to other people?
- Has your list of these things grown?
- When they do something thoughtful, how does it land?
- Is there something bigger you haven't said?
- Gut check — if they stopped doing it tomorrow, would you be happy?
