many in relationships do not understand what communication is all about, some think communication to be when you always call your partner on phone, always together and lots more,but let me tell us what communication is all about.. communication is the mutual understanding, agreement that exist between two or more people.. in a relationship whereby one person is doing all the talking and the other is just on the yes am hearing you part this is not communication... communication must be done in the way that the both parties are understanding and agreeing with each other... that u r talking for a very long time with a person does not mean u r communicating ...haven't you seen a situation whereby after talking for a very long time with a person and when u ask a question he says to you please repeat??? What do u call that??? Just want you to know that communication is not talking! I have seen couples communicate to themselves before my presence without saying a word.. if you are in a relationship, the silence or quietness of your friends sometimes tells u what he or she wants or probably how they are feeling at the moment they must not necessarily speak a word to u before you understand them... any relationship where words must be uttered before understanding comes... check it something is wrong somewhere.. learn to make your relationship work even without uttering a word because communication is not talking.
