It's a huge problem when people misunderstand. It's like an open-air minefield. It begins seconds after our first contact with someone and ends with an impressive explosion...
Rami Beracha
The biggest error we make is to believe that we're completely in sync in our expectations of each other and not trying to guess what our partner's expectations are of us. There is one aspect, however, which we are in total alignment with our partner on - he also doesn't miss an opportunity to expand the gap in expectations. .... There is no one to warn us of the coming conflict.
There are a variety of reasons that lead to confusion, and many of them have to do with our personalities. People who are square are more likely to be miscommunicative with liberals. People who are aggressive may have difficulty aligning expectations with passive people. This is easy to see - squared can be distinguished from liberal, while aggressive individuals can be distinguished from passive.

What if they're completely different? Only they won't be aware of that. There an in-between between them yet we do not know about it. It has not been found and has never been reported or studied by anyone. !
Ladies and gentlemen, I'd like to introduce you to a different type of personality that we all have: the FULL CIRCLE versus the HALF CIRCLE types! !
Rami Beracha
Note - A behavioral guidance when reading the coming analysis try to figure out which of the two personalities most accurately describes you as well as try to figure out who your partner in life is. If you realize that you're distinct personalities - just like Bono says, "we can be one however we are not the same" If you do, then you ought to be very content as you might have found the root-cause behind some of your differences. If you're on the other side, you are of the same kind, then I'm sorry but I'm not able to help you understand why your relationships look like the same thing...
We are here...
Two kinds of human beings are there. There are those who are 'full-circle' types who are self-contained and feels totally natural to be alone. Sure, he's required to be with someone, and yes, he's always in search of one. Absolutely! It is all true ... But, he can survive without the perfect partner until he does. After he has found the person of his dreams and is ready to share his life with his - hopefully complete circle - partner.
The "half-a circle" kind is the opposite side of humanity. (No, it's not the full-circle type that was damaged in the delivery). They won't let go of their miserable animal once they find it. In order to make one happy circle, they will almost integrate with the victims... however, don't allow them to do this absurdity of living side by side! The Halves will not relinquish their desire to stare at each one from a distance of 0 for the rest of their lives. It is impossible for them to be more intimate than that.
An interesting observation among the different types is how they decide to let go of their partners. The entire circle will surely get rid of a partner that has lost their chemistry rapidly. The half-circle's on the other side will redefine the idea of having the same chemistry' as their partners to mean: 'I'm holding onto this B..ST..RD. until I can replace him in a proper manner'.

Imagine a dance in which a half-a-circle and a full circle try to make their partner feel happy. The half is able to make two steps to the left of the comfort zone. The sudden invasion of his personal space is somewhat intimidating. So he fixes this zone-invasion-problem by making a gentle step backward. The problem is that he has stepped out of his comfortable zone .... and, while the Half was sure the Full had made an error that was innocent, the Half begins getting annoyed and makes another step forward. They don't know why, but they aren't using the correct terminology and don't know how to explain the situation. Therefore, they head to the wrong areas. They could be a lot easier for them to live if they had known the difference between Half and Full.
There is no single conclusion to this essay , but there are some action items:
1. Find out who you are.

2. Discover who is your real partner is.

3. There is a distinction.
3. Be respectful of the differences!
Let's be honest and say that there's only one conclusion Let's live and let go.
