In a special way, your heads and hearts are in the same place in this relationship. You will naturally know what the other is talking about whether or not you say it out loud, but when you do put it into words, it will be well expressed as well as sincerely delivered. This is a talent that can be taken for granted. However, there can also be a tendency to assume you have said the right thing. You let your intentions take control over your expressions without seeing them through. On a moment to moment basis, this is not a problem, for as long as you're getting the message across to each other, it doesn't matter how it's done or how accurate or complete you are in what you say. When others become involved, however, you can find they misinterpret what you say because you didn't go to the distance in making it clear by addressing the other person's viewpoint. It's entirely a question of neglect, arising from applying assumptions you safely make between yourselves to others who don't share your background and information. Therefore you may have to go out of your way to remember to say it all when you address the outside world especially when you have to put it in writing. Your communication skills have to be different for each person you are dealing with, something that is entirely within your reach.
