know your other half

Dont fall for the trap that you know your other half This premise is why relationship failed. I always hold the view that you can know 90% but watch out for the 10% which will string ripples in a relationship. This 10% will cause unspecify damages if one takes for granted that one knows everything about your other half. A simple rule "Do you know his or her waist line?" Mothers will know best upto a certain age; after which the mothers are in the dark of their children(adults) They won't know what they are doing. Believe me nobody knows. Like the recent case of a husband who is presumed plotted with others to commit a serious crime. Do we think his wife knows about it? About affairs of the heart too....when it finally hits you, you realise you haven't known each other after all. Anybody who makes that statement is to me fooling himself or herself that everything is alright. Like the case of Brad Pitt and Jennifer....they broke up and divorced after denying about the fallout in their marriage. Publicly they seemed like a golden couple but internally problems were brewing and finally scattered out for all to see. Dont take for granted a relationship will stay on course; there is always small storms here and there; ripples spreading or hiding; the dimly lit shadows smile; the unspoken words hovering in the mind; the unsatisfied sexual relationships and etc...So dont say you understand your other half. It is better to work on it everyday and reinvent the relationship to pursue it to the highest level. Be like a sportsperson- always practise to make it perfect though we know we can't achieve perfection but it is the thought that made all the differences
