MISUNDERSTANDINGS ARE LIKELY to occur in normal circumstances, and we should be on guard for them, as they can lead to a host of missed opportunities, hurt feelings, and worse (think Romeo and Juliet).
But, sometimes, misunderstandings are an internalized technique used to sustain a false reality; to establish an entitlement over the rights of others.
Babies are born with a “center of the universe” frame of mind. The most difficult thing in personal development, it seems, is to look out beyond the crib rail; beyond the horizon on a beach; or beyond the clouds above. Giving up the center of the universe is hard, and does not happen in some people (unless I have misunderstood).
How odd: Denial allows anyone to believe anything.
