Dear friends, those of you who are married or have partners, I would like to know from them, whether they can read their partner’s mind without any verbal communication. Can you judge what is going on his/her mind, when you are sitting with him/her, what kind of clothes s/he wants to wear? What type of food he wants to eat? Is he/she angry with you or appreciating you in his/her mind? These are few examples I have given, would like to know about your experiences and how good you or your partner are, in reading each other’s mind, without any verbal communication. And if you are able to read his/her mind - how many times, does your guess come out correct about him/her. Thanks in advance.

Deepak,
I do not think anyone could ever read another's mind. It's ear to impossible. having said this. facial expression might give us a hint of what the other person is going through. Like our moods are reflected on our face. But personally I do not think we can read anyone's mind, however close we are.
Thanks.

This is precisely what I also think, it is difficult to read someone's mind and to know without verbal communication, what is going on in other partner's mind. Some of the respondents have said here they can do so....and they are lucky to have such level of understanding. To know minor things like mood swing and annoyance etc. is easier and can be understood through facial expressions.

Hello deepak! Yes, I can read what's on my husband's mind without him telling me. Sometimes, when we're talking on the phone, he was about to say something but I stopped him and he laughed out loud by telling me "You really can read my mind" Well, he can read my mind too and he exactly knows when I am angry or not.

It is not related to partners only. Parents, animals and any close relatives can read our mind.
I can think about walking dogs at night and I don't have to say anything. My animals are ready to go, before I say "lets go".
Very often I am answering unspoken words by my boyfriend.
One day I said..."look at top drawer"....and he asked..."how did you know what I am looking for?" He was in different room and he didn't say anything. He was just thinking how to find scissors.
This is one of the examples. We all are able to read other people minds. People who are together for a long time always know what other person thinks.
This is our 6th sense...

It is really good to know that you and your partner has very good chemistry between both of you and you can understand/read his mind even without a verbal communication. Pola! You are very sharp, I must say.
After reading face expressions, I can also imagine, what my better half is thinking in her mind at that very particular moment. Thanks for sharing such a lovely thoughts with me.

I would broadly know what my partner is seriously thinking abut when he is sitting with the morniNG Economic Times in his hand and a serious look on his face after reading a particular article or so.
This is because he is generally predictable with the paper in his hand.I rarely see him sitting around, doing nothing and thinking hard.He would at least have a long note book and be writing something In the former case I would immediately ask what he is so seriusly thinking about and it would once again be somehting to do with economics, capital market etc.., something that is work related .It would rarely be on some personal issue and if it is after some event ,say, some telephone conversation or the arrival of a letter then I would know that this is what he is thinking about.But there it ends.i would not know what he is thinking about exactly.

OH! You and your hubby are great! You have such a great chemistry with your hubby and since he is predictable you can assess, what he actually thinks or will converse about. Hope your bonds and love between two of you will get strengthened with this kind of chemistry. Keep it up!

Hi deepak,
After 25 years with my hubby, of-course I can understand meaning of every blink of his eyes. Verbal communication is not necessary as far as food,clothes, general liking and disliking is concerned. Some times when we are sitting with guest, just from looking into each others eyes we understand what is to be done. Also if something funny happens and we cannot express our feeling at that time, looking at each others face we know that both are dying to laugh. Also when some day we find that though spouse is not saying anything but his behavior is not as usual, then we know that something is bothering him. Just expressions are enough to understand if spouse is happy or sad. I think we both are about 80% right about the guess that we make about each other.Marriage indeed is very strong and respectable relationship,,,,,,, and what about you and your wife.

After reading face expressions, I can also imagine, what my better half is thinking in her mind at that very particular moment. But she wants me to sharper and smarter, so that I would read her inner most desires. Reading what is going on her mind at a deeper level, is difficult to understand for me, I can read upto an extent. I hope you understand what I wanted to convey.

Deepak, no man can ever understand what is hidden deep inside heart of a woman, not because man is not smart or intelligent but because, women herself is not sure what exactly she wants. Women is a confused piece of art and changes faster than her thoughts and that is why you will find most women unsatisfied and complaining all the time.
. The fact is that men like you are perfectly all right and I think you don't have to do more that what you are doing as what you are doing is not only enough, but MORE THAN ENOUGH.
so smile now and be happy.

I am really sorry, I just missed your comments and could not see it earlier. You have opened such a great secret to me that now I can well understand why a woman or say a wife does not feel satisfied with her husband because she does not know herself - what she exactly wants. Many thanks for your kind words about me.

Yes!I am capable of reading my wife's mind.More times it is correct and she will be amazed how I get it.I think it comes in handy after you have observed her well and you have the love for her.Knowing well our partner about their likes and dislikes is the key,I think.Cheers!

Yes me and my hubby can read each others minds. We always know what the other is thinking and we finish each others sentences. It is kind of creepy in a way, and when he was out on the road I would call him and he would be thinking of something that I would call and ask him.

Often, LOL. YOu know the thing about completing each other's sentences, that's us. And our friends joke with us because of that LOL Mind you, I said often, not always. But it's nice that it happens.
NOw as for judging what's on our minds I am better at that than hubby - which doesn't always work in his advantage.
HE's ok getting the idea of how I'm feeling even when I'm trying to be cheerful, though and most times knows exactly what I want - be it that I feel like having an ice cream, or that I would prefer to stay home, or even if I want something special for my bday and what.

Hi dpk,
I would say most of the time, I can do that! But, I know I have limitations too!
I can tell when he is stressed from work, I can tell when he is tried or want to be alone for awhile! And most of the time, I am correct..
I know this is true to all couple, being together 24/7, makes us know well our partner!

It depends on how long have you been together or how open you are to each other. I am married for 13 years and I can say that I can read my husbands gestures just like reading between the lines. I can tell if there is something that bothers him, I know when to keep silent when he is tired and don't want to talk about anything. I know when he is hungry and I know when to make his coffee.
The longer you are being together, you will memorize all the things about your partner even his footsteps. You can even read his mind, body language, as well as you'll know when he changes patterns and if there is something he hides from you.

You are asking me to answer my question, as far as I am concerned, if is difficult for me read my spouse's mind, without any verbal communication being made between us.
What is your opinion, is it possible to read other's mind.

I am with my boyfriend for almost 4 and a half years now and sometimes I really know what he feels in a certain moment although he wants to hide it from me. Just yesterday we had lunch at my mother house and my mother prepared something I have never seen him eat before so I was wondering if he's gonna like it or not. He tried to hide that he didnt like it and he kept saying that he liked it but I knew that he didn't and at the end few hours later he told me he didnt like it.
Another example, sometimes I know what he is going to do even before he actually does it...or I know what he is going to say before he actually says it. The same happens to him too... I can't hide anything from him.

Yes i can easily tell from my husbands face what he is feeling. Especially when giving food or when i have changed to a new dress his face expressions or his eyes tell me if he likes it or not. His eye movement is the most important clue for me what he is felling and i react accordingly.

I am not very good about what he thinks dpk! But, in most cases, I know his reaction when he is hungry,want to be alone,tired,thinking about money or bills,sad,happy,inspired and motivated. Those given situations, I can tell in his face and gestures. But when he wants to be alone, a very common attitude of men, I can't tell everything what he is thinking! I wish I could but I have no skill..LOL, so, most of the time, i am asking him what is bothering him.

Come to think of it, I do that. Sometimes, just eye contact and I know what my partner wants and thinks. He sometimes doesn't need to tell me what he wants. He is that way to me too. He can read my mind. Sometimes when we have disagreements then we make up he asks me if I am reall okay and I answer him that I am okay, he can sense that I am not okay. When he goes out with his friends and asks me if it's okay and I told him it's okay (but deep inside I disagree), he knows when it's really okay or not.
My relationship is a long-distance kind so there were times when I can sense if he is in danger. If I have colds or coughs, he also have one.

hello,
i am happily married and i can affirm 100% that my husband and i can read each other's mind always. it may sound too good to be true but i am happy that it is real in my case.
when we are just getting to know each other i can feel that we are very much connected and it helps me a lot to trust my feelings that he is the one and he feels the same way - so we are happily together for almost 5 years now.
since the very beginning of us knowing each other even if we are far away he can feel if i am sick or something is not right and i am the same way to him.
most of the time if i am thinking of specific thing to do he will surprise me of that and i am just blown away, it is such a precious relationship and i am very grateful that i am sharing such rare relationship with the man i love.
most of my friends will tell you that we are very alike and that we are like ONE person just the way we behave - mind you, we dont agree with some stuff but we never see that as a negative factor but something that will connect us more.
i guess that is why we can read each others mind and feel each other even though we are near or far from each other coz we are very connected and that we do share the kind of love that is very unique in my opinion.
i guess, those who will say I DO to your question will understand and will be able to relate on how and what i am feeling.
takecare!

At first it didn't really take knowing my partner seriously, because I always thought that he should be the one who gets to spend effort knowing me. But last year I realized that I needed to know my partner VERY, VERY WELL. He can read me.. even while he's asleep. While I'm having a difficult time trying to figure things out especially when we have fights. It took a huge effort for me because I didn't want him to know that I was trying to memorize him.. And now I can actually say I know him well. I know what to do when he's mad, when he's not in the mood, when he's happy.. Knowing your partner well is really very important. It lessens fights and makes one realize a lot about handling the relationship.

Well, Most often, I have an idea of what is going on with my husband like there is something wrong with his work or some problems that is going on through his actions I could tell. but reading his thoughts exactly what it is... Seems hard to tell what he is thinking.
There are times that my husband would not tell me in detail about his big problem because he doesn't want me to be affected with it, Specially if I can not do anything to help.
as to how many times my guess come correct? Most of the time.
