The prompt
I think there’s something I already know and keep behaving as if I don’t. Help me say it. Don’t answer yet. Ask me up to six questions, one at a time, about what I keep ‘waiting to see’ about, what I’d tell a friend in my position, and what I hope nobody asks me directly. Listen for my hedges: ‘probably’, ‘for now’, ‘it’s complicated’. Then tell me the one thing you think I already know, in a single plain sentence. Show where my answers gave it away, and say what not knowing lets me keep. Don’t tell me what to do about it. If you’re guessing, say so, and if I don’t seem to be hiding anything from myself, say that. Be direct. No padding and no reassurance I did not ask for.
From what you know about me, what do I already know but keep behaving as if I don’t? Say it in one plain sentence. Show where I’ve given it away in our past conversations, hedges included, and separate what you know from what you’re inferring. Say what not knowing lets me keep. Don’t tell me what to do about it, and don’t flatter me. Be direct. No padding and no reassurance I did not ask for.
