讓枕邊人迅速離婚的13個(gè)問(wèn)題

“To Fall in Love With Anyone, Do This,” which highlighted the 36 questions that one psychologist says can lead to love, is one of the most popular Modern Love columns ever. Here, an alternative take.

《如何快速與陌生人相愛(ài)》是“摩登情愛(ài)”欄目至今為止最受歡迎的文章之一，它列出了一位心理學(xué)家稱(chēng)可以讓人墜入愛(ài)河的36個(gè)問(wèn)題。以下，是另一種嘗試。

First, grab someone you hope to someday divorce. Choose anyone. Oh, hey, how about the person next to you in bed clipping their toenails and eating leftover kimchi with their hands? They seem super-divorceable.

首先，找到一個(gè)你希望有一天與其離婚的人。任何人都可以。噢，嘿，那個(gè)在床上躺在你旁邊、一邊剪著腳趾甲、一邊用手吃著韓國(guó)泡菜剩飯的家伙怎么樣?他們看起來(lái)超級(jí)招人想和他們離婚。

With these questions, keep an eye out for mutual disdain. When resentment surfaces, lean into it. It’s the key to splitting up. Allow it to push you further apart until someone ends up alone watching “Roadhouse” at a Motel 6.

拿著這些問(wèn)題，留心尋找你們流露出的相互的輕蔑。當(dāng)怨恨開(kāi)始浮現(xiàn)，讓自己投入這種情緒。這是分手的關(guān)鍵。讓它將你們扯開(kāi)得更遠(yuǎn)，直到某個(gè)人最終淪落到在一家汽車(chē)旅館里獨(dú)自看《威龍殺陣》(Roadhouse)。

Before starting this exercise, one of you should read the following instructions aloud while the other removes any sharp objects from the room. Hide the blunt potential projectiles, too.

在開(kāi)始這個(gè)練習(xí)之前，你們其中一人應(yīng)該大聲讀出以下指南，而另一個(gè)人則要把房間里的任何尖銳物品拿走。也要把那些可能會(huì)被用來(lái)扔向彼此的鈍器藏好。

1. Read each question aloud while the other shuts up and doesn’t talk over me. The other just listens. Can the other do that? Just listen?

1. 大聲朗讀每個(gè)問(wèn)題，另一個(gè)人閉嘴，不要蓋過(guò)我的話。對(duì)方只需要聽(tīng)。能做到嗎?只聽(tīng)?

2. It’s important to answer each question in order, though it’s hard to tell what’s important to you anymore.

2. 按順序回答問(wèn)題很重要，雖然現(xiàn)在已經(jīng)很難講出什么對(duì)你來(lái)說(shuō)還算重要的了。

3. The questions are divided into three sets. Each set will take about five minutes but feel like an eternity. That’s why the questions are divided into three sets. Because an eternity divided by three is ... um.

3. 問(wèn)題被分成了三個(gè)部分。每個(gè)部分需要大概5分鐘時(shí)間，但你會(huì)感覺(jué)那如同永恒。這就是為什么這些問(wèn)題被分成了三部分。因?yàn)橛篮愠匀扔?hellip;…嗯。

4. Do not rush through the questions, but answer each one at a comfortable, quick-to-turn-defensive, deeply spiteful pace.

4. 不要倉(cāng)促完成這些問(wèn)題，但要用一種讓你舒服的、能夠快速轉(zhuǎn)變成自我防御、帶著深深怨恨的節(jié)奏回答每一個(gè)問(wèn)題。

5. You probably won’t get through all the questions in each set, and that will be your fault. Just like everything else.

5. 你可能不會(huì)完成每一部分里的每個(gè)問(wèn)題，而那將會(huì)是你的錯(cuò)。就和其他任何事情一樣。

13. Should we have sex now? 13. 我們現(xiàn)在要做愛(ài)嗎?

After answering “I’m all set” to the last question, take four minutes to quietly stare into space thinking about who gets to keep the Apples to Apples decks.

在對(duì)最后這個(gè)問(wèn)題回答“我已經(jīng)不需要了”之后，用4分鐘的時(shí)間安靜地呆呆凝視前方，想一想《蘋(píng)果派對(duì)》游戲牌最后歸誰(shuí)。
