Clarifying doubts in relationship: Feelings

This question relates to honesty and trust or lack of understanding of your partner’s feelings.
Let’s check if you can understand your partner’s feelings by taking this small test:
1) Try to remember your partner’s last complains and make notes – what did he complain today? Yesterday?
Some Example: weather is cold today, I am late to work, why should I wait for you again?, don’t interrupt me please, my boss is killing me, your friends have negative influence on you, etc.
2) Now, ask him if you understood all his complains correctly. Then ask him to score you from 0 to 5 depending on how accurately you understood him.
Conclusion: If your score is 5, it means that you are attentive to your partner’s feelings and emotions - you can really understand them. So, if you have some doubts related to his feelings (he loves you or not, he wants to be with you or not, is he happy or not), you may be right.
If your score is lower than 5, it means that you have some issues in understanding his feelings and emotions, and your doubts may be based on misunderstandings which is good to clarify.

Clarifying doubts in relationship: Why is he doing it?

This question relates to understanding your partner’s behavior and motivations in decision-making process.
Let’s check if you can understand your partner at this level by taking a test:
1) Try to remember your partner’s last 3 decisions which he made independently. Some examples: He washed his car yesterday after work, he called his friend today, she skipped her gym session, he didn’t call me yesterday, she quit her job etc.
2) Now write down your motivations: why did he wash his car yesterday after work? What was the real reason he called his friend today? Why did she decide not to go to the gym? What made him not to call you? What is the real reason for her to quit the job?
3) Ask your partner to verify your answers and score you from 0 to 5.
Conclusion: If your score is 5, it means that you can really understand your partner’s motivations and his decision-making process. So, if you have some doubts related to his decisions (why doesn’t he take you to meet his friends or parents, why he left you alone) – your guesses may be correct but it is always better to get his confirmation.
If your score is lower than 5, it means that you have some issues in understanding your partner’s motives and decisions; your doubts may be based on misunderstandings which need to be clarified before jumping into conclusion.
