Unfortunately humans were not given the gift of mind reading when they were created. We cannot read our spouse’s mind and they cannot read our thoughts either. Yet there are times we expect our spouse to read our minds. We often assume that if we see or feel something that our spouse see’s or feel’s the same way at that moment; that if we see a need or something to be done, that of course, they will see it as clearly as we do.
This is not the case; we are incorrect in believing we think alike. Men and women are wired completely differently. We were created differently and think differently for a reason. God designed us to be different from each other so we would complement one another. When we were joined in marriage the 2 together would be better than one individually. The other spouse when they do something we do not expect, they may be just thinking differently than you.
So ask yourself – Do I expect my spouse to read my mind?
- Do you expect your spouse to do something without you telling them to do it?
- Do you think your spouse should know what to do, without some direction?
- Do you assume if your spouse is quiet you have done something wrong?
