So as I was looking for a topic, I came across this article on Thought Catalogue:
8 Questions That Have No Right Answers
The questions are as follows:
1. What are you going to do with your life?
This question has already been discussed previously by me. I honestly think it's the most frustrating question ever because no one really knows what they want. You get something, you get a slight high, and you go back to square one.
2. When are you going to get married already?
Not everyone gets married. I dispise the films where relatives are asking the single man or woman why they are not married. Marriage is a choice that I congratulate people on. It's not an easy feat to get to that point or to even stay with each other for the "rest of your life." Sometimes marriage isn't even in that person's agenda of life. Its like asking a nun why doesn't she find a nice man and get married. We choose the lives we live and we live it. We don't need assholes to question our life choices just because it doesn't fit with social norms.
3. Why don't we hang out anymore?
"Well, because you're an asshole", she thought as he did his terrible display in public.
Well, this sort of question is sort of sad. I always tried avoiding questions like this, ever since I learned more about friendships/relationships. It makes people sound needy and can be very off putting when asked. There is always a reason for someone to do something. Again stop questioning choices. This question can be summed up by this lovely quote about holding on to friendships that everyone should follow when applicable:
"If you're the only one doing the watering, it's okay to let it die."
4. Why did you move?
We all need to move on at some point in our lives, figuratively and literally. I always wondered how it would feel to pack your bags, leave everything, and move away. It must feel amazingly liberating. When we experience break ups of relationships we have to move on mentally. When we decide we need to experience a new environment, we pack our bags and move. How this question should be answered? Well like the title of the article, there is not right answer. You just feel obligated to, therefore you do it.
5.Why are you still single?
This sounds like it is coming out of a Bridget Jones film. The specific scene for those unknown to the workings of Bridget Jones, is when she goes to the dinner party hosted by a couple where everyone sitting at the table are couples. There should be no shame on being single. People should not be pressured to find a significant other. If things happen then they happen. So be it.
6. Why did you take on all of that debt?
1. Because I needed to pay for a good education?
2. I needed this thing to make my life easier?
3. Why are you asking about my financial shit?
7. Why aren't you having any fun?
Well this is silly. Obvi because I'm not. Because nothing is going on?
8. Why don't you love me?
BECAUSE I DON'T, OKAY? Well there's always a reason. Drifting apart? Changing? Why do you have to question people's feelings.
I feel like all of these questions are the stupid questions that teachers always told you did not exist.
Cheers,
Claire Chong
