- If we can't forget traumatic events but can modify our emotional response to past events, can the changes to a person's character following an event also be reversed or altered? For example, if someone who was once very positive and engaging returns from war or suffers the loss of a parent/spouse and becomes guarded and distant, how much of our "character" is malleable? Or can people truly become "stuck in their ways"? This question relates to the episode 365: Benjamin Hardy | How to Break Free from Self-Limiting Beliefs and the clip Personality and Passion.

- Do my thoughts about gender dynamics in dating, as discussed in episode 37: Duana Welch | The Science of Jealousy and How to Manage It and the clip Mating Strategies, align with your understanding? I feel that men have to work hard to gain social status and financial stability to attract women, while women are pursued regardless of their qualities. It seems like there are often many men interested in one woman, giving her the power to choose. I'm frustrated by the idea that men have to chase after women and navigate complex social games to gain their interest. I love women and don't want to have a negative mindset, but sometimes I can't help but feel this way.
