Think twice

My friend is having a problem with her husband. The issue only started with a call that came in 1 am in the morning to her hubby's phone. Who would call a guy in wee morning ? If it is about business , why can't the person call the next morning during office hours ? If the call from a friend, can't you call your friend the next day ? How urgent it can be until you can't wait until the next morning ?

They didn't talk for days after she confronted the husband for the truth. It can be easily solved if he can convinced her it is a wrong number or a friend called to say someoned died...or something that is really reasonable.

Days are wasted because we can't communicate to each other. I think this is almost normal in any other household. When we can't say the truth, we rather let it pass and then pick up where we left off.

We use to regret for the things we did in the past. We can learn from other people mistakes. But sometimes over and over again, the same mistakes are done. And the reason is the person consciously and subconsciously is aware the choice that he/she is making will hurt the partner but still he/she does not think twice before proceeding with the action. Who can we blame when these things happen ? We can't blame anyone except ourselves

If we have a good partner, he/she will accept us anyway although the mistake we have done is almost unforgivable. That's the only way to stay in the relationship. According to statistics, 80% of a couple will give their partner a second chance. Only 20% would seek total separation. Based on this statistics we know that majority of us would like to stay in the relationship and we will try our best to mend things.

My point is only ONE. Before we do anything, we are able to think. So do not think ONCE. Think TWICE before embarking into an action that can hurt someone else.
