You may argue about the differences between what you want and what your partner thinks you should want from your relationship. You tend to look at what you want to look at as far as your partner is concerned and this can lead to confusion. By being scrupulously honest you can avoid the temptation to be manipulative. You may develop an indirect approach to assert your desires and this will impair your effectiveness and create anger, mistrust, and confusion. You need to be careful not to promise more than you are able to deliver. Although initially this may make your partner feel better, in the long run they will believe you have misled them and their trust in you will be eroded. It can be hard at times for you to deal with them directly, especially because it doesn't seem that they will listen to reason or even want to see reality.�
