Desired Inquiry

You're asking what I want, but I'm not sure myself , it's like I'm caught between knowing and not knowing, and now I'm waiting for you to figure it out for me

In some cultures, asking someone what they want from you can feel like an intrusion, so my shrug and raised hand are like polite hints that I'd rather you keep it simple

On social media, this combo can feel like an accusation , like you're expecting me to know exactly what you need, even when we don't talk much anymore

At work, this mix makes sense when you're handed a task you weren't expecting , like asking me what I want from you, when I was just told what to do by someone else

In a relationship, this can feel like you're holding me to an unspoken standard , like you're asking what I want, but not giving me a chance to explain why I don't know yet
