Just to add another perspective...I think when people tell us things they're sure we need to know, unless we are truly secure in who we are we tend to react so others don't think we are a doormat, or weak or crazy, stupid blind.
Letting go of egao and the need to please others is such a central part of this process.

Let me give up the need to know why things happen as they do. I will never know and constant wondering is constant suffering. Caroline Myss
