You don't know me
How many times have we heard the phrase, "You don't know me." in a romantic movie or drama serial. The phrase has been used thousands of times, especially in the heat of an argument.How many times have we used it in our lives? Who have we said this phrase to? Spouses, parents, siblings, friends.
Why do we expect people to know us well? And when we expect that from someone, how sure are we that we understand them?
And if we don't even understand ourselves, how can we expect others to do so?
It hurts when you realise you don't understand someone. Even after knowing the person for years.
It hurts even more when you realise you don't even understand yourself, and yet expect the other person to understand you.
How can we know ourselves better? How can we know other people better?

The first step... is acknowledging the fact that you don't know! Then you go from there.
