It's natural to see everything from our own perspective and life experience.  But that can cause us HUGE problems. How many times has someone you've met disappointed you, as they weren't what you thought?  Yup.  Its happened to us all.  It happens a lot, particularly with romantic relationships.  We meet someone and 'think' they will be who we expect and wantthem to be.  Sadly, more often than not, they're not!
