I put other.

I think we have blindspots and my T has worked with me long enough that he picks up on them. Then he points them out and I'm like GAH! It's like when I was saying something to my H and he was like, "You're doing that to avoid X" and I was like, "Uh. Wait. Yeah. Dang it."

I don't think it's possible to understand someone better than they understand themselves because I don't think most people have that much info. That's why relationships of different sorts are a thing. We know some stuff. Someone else knows some stuff. We meet up and we swap notes.
