She asks the same question every five minutes, and I still answer. It can be tiring, but I try to stay calm and patient because I understand there’s usually something deeper behind those repeated questions. Often, it’s not just about the words she says—it’s about needing reassurance or feeling uncertain. So even if I’ve answered before, I don’t get frustrated; instead, I respond gently each time.
Sometimes it helps to use little reminders like notes or calendars to ease her worry. When the questions keep coming, I might try to change the subject softly or invite her to do something together—like having a cup of tea—to distract from that anxious loop in her mind.
I also pay attention to how I say things: my tone of voice, my facial expressions, and even a gentle touch can make a big difference. Words alone aren’t always enough; showing warmth through presence helps her feel safe and understood.
If it gets overwhelming for me, taking a short break is okay too—stepping away briefly lets me come back with more patience rather than frustration. This way, even though she asks again and again, our connection stays steady because she feels heard every single time.
