We all know, that every transaction involves “give and get”. If you buy something, you give money. If you eat at the restaurant, you get food and you give money. Likewise, for every transaction, it’s the same.
It’s true for any non-monetary relationship between the two humans, too. We have to give something which might be trust, respect, faith, to get love, dependency, peace. And only when we spend enough time knowing the person, we would know what the person wants. Otherwise, we end up giving what the person really doesn’t care about, but the true relationship is built when we understand the need and hunger of another person.
While it is not easy to understand what the other person wants, because we are so consumed with ourselves, it is not impossible either and with the practice, we can master it too.
