Being Misunderstood

Being misunderstood happens when someone incorrectly interprets or misunderstands another person’s idea differently. Therefore, when one is misunderstood, this triggers their emotions. There might be no good relationship between the two people because both of them understood certain information from very different perspectives. Information can be misunderstood because of the difference the two partners have, for every one of them will interpret the message in another way of understanding; this may be due to the gap the two have, which makes them interpret information according to their point of view. Emotions also contribute; on the other hand, this may be because of oneself or the feeling caused by the other partner.

Misunderstanding between the two people can lead to arguments, and this makes the partners not achieve a particular objective that they have been discussing in that they may end up wasting their time arguing about an issue and end up with no resolution. For instance when the two partners choose to have a good communication this will solve their problems, and they will also avoid conflicts, therefore it is good to be open and share their views to make everything clear to avoid being misunderstood by the other person. Something else that the video discusses is how a person can make sure that they are on the right side even after a misunderstanding and how they can recover whatever was misunderstood about them. An example in the video is that a person can be misunderstood and in real sense they feel offended, however later after realizing that what was being said was true they go and ask for forgiveness and seek to work out on whatever was misunderstood about them.
