The issue of miscommunication is serious. I’d venture to say that it’s a dangerous hazard that is our own creation .. It starts one second after the first contact is made with someone and ends with an incredible explosion…

The biggest mistake we make is to assume complete agreement in our expectations but never bother to understand the expectations of our partner. One thing is certain, however: our partner will not miss an chance to expand this gap . There’s nobody to inform us of the upcoming clash.

There are a variety of reasons that lead to miscommunications, and most of them are related to our personalities. Squared personalities are likely to be misinformed by people of a liberal mindset, and individuals who are aggressive will have difficult to align expectations with those of passive people. It is simple to recognize that squared personalities can be distinguished from liberal, whereas aggressive is a distinct thing from passive.

What if they were different? Think of the personality gap. There is no one who has noticed it, warned others about it, or investigated it…NOT FREUD! !

Ladies and gentlemen, I’d like to introduce you to a different type of personality we all share: The FULL CIRCLE versus the HALF CIRCLE personalities! !

Note – This is the guidance for your behavior. After you’ve read the analysis, you should try to discover which personality best describes your personality. At the same time you should determine who your partner in real life is. If you find that you are of two distinct kinds, as Bono states “we’re one but we’re not the same” If you do, then you ought to be content. You might have discovered the reason behind some of the differences between you! If, on the other hand you’re similar to one another and you’re not sure why, I’m sorry to say that I’m not able to help you understand why your relationships look like shit…

Now we are…

There are two kinds of human beings that are called humans. Some of us fall into the “full-circle” category, which is an individual who is totally independent and doesn’t feel that the need for a partner. Yes, he needs an accomplice, yes, that he would like to have a partner and yes, he’s on a perpetual search of a partner. Absolutely! This is absolutely true. … But, he can’t live without his dream companion until he finds one. He will continue to live his life side by side with the person he is going to marry once they find one.

Half-circle people constitute the remaining half of humanity. And once they have found the miserable animal, they DO NOT LET GO! To form an encircling circle, they’ll try to join their victim physically. They’ll not be compromising on being able to stare at each others for the rest of their lives. It is impossible for them to be more connected than that.

An interesting observation in the two types: the decision to let go of a partner. Someone who has lost their chemistry with the whole circle will be dismissed easily by the entire circle. On the other hand, half-circles will alter the definition of chemistry between partners to be – “I am holding on to this B..ST..RD. until I can replace him with a better version.”

Imagine the amazing dance that takes place in the moment two people, a “half-a-circle” and the “full-circle” attempt to impress his partner, not being aware of their different geometries. The Half moves two steps ahead far beyond the comfort zone of the Full who find this unexpected invasion of his personal space little too frightening. So he fixes this zone-invasion-problem by making a gentle step backward. But the problem is that he did the Half step out of his comfort zone …… The Half is aware that the Full has made an error that was not his fault, and he makes another step backward.. However, the Half is soon upset and starts to make a bigger, more aggressive step.. They understand the reason, but since they don’t have the correct terminology they can’t adequately explain their madness and turn to the wrong places. They could have avoided their own misery by knowing the difference between Full and Half.

Although there isn’t a single conclusion, there are several actions that can be taken.

1. Find out who you really are.
