That one question....

Why can't you act normal?

The first time I was asked that I literally felt my heart break into pieces that would never fit together again.

Humm... now I have a 12 inch scar to prove it broke. Imagine that.

Yeah I've gotten that one too many times by now. Fortunately I can't recall the first time I was asked it but since I was a child I am sure my reaction was the same. However being the smart ass I am it didn't take me long to come up with the reply of Sure I'll get right on that would that be my normal or your normal that you are wanting me to achieve.

It is a mean question no matter your age. Don't you agree

Yes. And at 57 I've reached my limit finally I think. Living with a constant reminder person who never fails at some point to find a raw spot and add salt. It's a great training ground for learning how to let go of old hurts. Haven't quite got the nack of not taking it personal sometimes. Not perfect I know only too well, but I'll never embarrass you, and even your Mom will like me.

* Even if your heart's not exactly shattered at the moment, it has no doubt been so at some time in the past. I invite you to feel a wave of sadness about your suffering, then move on to this possibility: that having a broken heart is one of the best things that can happen to you.

Why? Because it strengthens your humility, which makes you smarter. It demonstrates to you that you have a tremendous capacity for deep feelings -- far more than you're normally aware of. It breaks down defense mechanisms that have desensitized you to the world's secret beauty. It may also inspire you to treat other people's hearts with greater care, making it more likely that you'll be able to create intelligent intimacy in the future.

A question I always get

Do you have a pic where you are smiling?

Don't like my pic taken but I do have some where I am genuinly smiling

LoyalWolfsBlade · 08-15-2014, 05:30 AM

Would you (fill in blank)
Or
Could you (fill in the blank)

Both asked at the most inconvenient time, like fourth quarter witj a min left on the clock, and you just know neither are actually questions because the only answer is yes lol

Better yet....
Before you sit down would you....

Always asked right as you're sitting down,,,,lol

Blame the exhausted mind I have right now for this post.....

Interesting thread.

I don't often feel uncomfortable answering questions. So I had to ponder this a bit.

Probably one of the questions asked by my ex many years ago is one of very, very few that made my stomach come up and my heart sink.... "Who is MadamePleasure?". I was a bastard and I had been caught.

But other than that one, I would have to think hard on it. Many questions make me sad, or look at the asker like WTF, some make me laugh. But there doesn't seem to be "that one" (metaphorical one I understand the concept) that I get over and over.

Although little kids do crack me up when they ask "Are you a boy or a girl?". And almost as funny is the parents horrified look, not knowing how I will react.
