Unless you have a crystal ball it is not possible to guess what others expects from you. Every time we try to take care of major details or aspects of any thing but we forget to take care of minor things. This happens many times, you can call it human nature or may be something we can call it slip through the crack. But are you totally responsible for this, I don’t think so but your partner thinks you are totally responsible for not meeting the expectations.
“Expectation” is root cause of all problem, in any relation.
When you start expecting and when your expectations do not get fulfilled by your partner then, you can call it as a official “Start of problem”. Once you get into any relation we always make it more complicated than it suppose to be. By virtue of human nature we add so many additives in our relation and we make it more complicated.
I would like to share the story of my friend.
One day he came home and he was very hungry, due to work load he didn’t get any time to eat. He came home and went straight to kitchen and started eating whatever he find in the fridge. He totally forgot that he said to his wife last week to take her out for dinner next week. Now what, his wife was getting ready assuming that she will go out for dinner today and it was her expectation and my friend didn’t had any clue about this. She came out from bedroom and finds her husband eating alone in the living room. She turned red, and created big drama. They were fighting for 3 days and somehow their anger died down with time, otherwise who knows how long it would last.
Can you tell me whose is at fault, in this whole scenario ? is it really difficult to tell ? I don’t think so, If you ask any bi-stander they can tell you it’s not my friend’s fault. But when his wife was expecting something from her husband she did not expressed her clearly that she wants to go for dinner tonight itself.
One should always avoid these confusions in a life, be specific and clear all the time to make it happen smoothly. There is lot to write about this but i don’t want to make it too long. I hope I conveyed my message.
