Miscommunication is a big issue. It's almost like a minefield. It begins a second after making contact with another person and then ends with an astonishing explosion...
Our biggest error is always believing that there is complete alignment in expectations on both sides. We don't want to get inside our partner's mind to find out what his expectations are. There's one thing, however, that we are completely in agreement with our partner on the other hand - he never misses an opportunity to widen the gap in expectations. .... We are not alerted by anyone.
There are numerous causes that can cause confusion. The squared personality is more likely than liberal individuals to miscommunicate, and individuals who are aggressive may have difficulty getting their expectations in line with passive. But this is easy to spot - we know squared from liberal, and aggressive from passive.
What is the likelihood that they're so different, but they do not be aware of it. Imagine if there's a gap in personality. Nobody has ever noticed it, warned others about it, or investigated it...NOT be a FRAUD! !

Ladies and gentlemen, let me introduce you to a brand new type of personality is shared by all of us: the FULL CIRCLE versus the HALF CIRCLE personalities! !
This analysis offers the ability to make better decisions about your behavior. Try to figure which personality best describes who you are Then, try to determine the person who is your partner. If you realize that you're two different people - as Bono says, "we can be one, but not the same" You should be very happy 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 are shit...
Let's get going...

Humans are split into two. There are those who are "full-circle', which is a self-contained person who feels completely at home by his own. He does need a partner, yes there is a need for a partner and yes he is in perpetual search of the right partner. Absolutely! It's true! ... But, he'll be able to survive without a dream partner until he finds one. He wants to share his life with his partner and is hoping to make it to the end of his circle.

The "half of a circle" individuals on the opposite side have an accomplice. Once they've found the miserable animal that they have found, they will not let it go. They will move to almost physically integrate with their victim to form a joyful circle... and do not allow them to experience the dreadful reality of living shoulder to shoulder! The Halves will not compromise on their desire to stare at each one from a distance that is zero for the rest. Nothing less intimate can satisfy their urge to integrate with another half and create a whole.
One of the most fascinating observations between types is how they decide to leave their companion. The entire circle will undoubtedly be able to let go of a person who is losing their chemistry quickly. Half-circles, on the other hand, will redefine the definition of having mutual chemistry with their partners as 'I'm hanging on to this B..ST..RD until I can safely replace him with an appropriate upgrade'.
Imagine the awe-inspiring dance happening in the moment two "half-a-circle" and a "full-circle" are trying to impress his partner, not being aware of their different geometries. The Half makes two steps forward, way past the comfort zone of the Full, who find this unexpected invasion into his own personal space a little too frightening. So he fixes this zone-invasion-problem by making a gentle step backward. Problem is, he made the Half move out of his comfort area ...... The Half is aware that the Full made an innocent error, so the Half takes a second step backwards.. But the Half quickly gets angry and takes a bigger, more aggressive step.. They don't know why however, they don't have the proper terms and are unable to describe it. They go to the wrong places. If they only knew that one half is a Half and the other one is Full, it could have helped them ...
