Discerning whether your perception of your partner is true or false requires self-awareness, open communication, and a willingness to challenge assumptions. Emotions, past experiences, and personal biases can distort how you see them, leading to either idealization or unwarranted criticism. To gain clarity, observe their actions over time—consistent behavior is a stronger indicator of character than occasional words or gestures. Reflect on whether your expectations are realistic or shaped by personal fears, insecurities, or societal influences. Engaging in honest conversations about feelings, needs, and concerns can reveal whether your assumptions align with their true intentions. Seeking input from trusted friends or a counselor can also provide an objective perspective. In this episode, I cover the tendency for people to either project onto their partner things that are untrue or for the receiving partner to have blind spots about how they really are. Listen in as I discuss this tendency and what to do about it.
