Sometimes, the question isn’t really a question.
“Are you okay with me?”
“Did I do something?”
“You still like talking to me, right?”
On the surface, these can sound like casual conversations. But sometimes, there is something else sitting underneath them: the quiet need to hear, “Yes, we’re okay.”
Not everyone finds it easy to ask for reassurance directly. Instead, it can slip out through small questions, jokes, or even changes in behaviour. Here are some common ways it happens.
