The other face was written by Salma Shalash. She is an Egyptian author of short stories from the 70s and 80s. He wrote a large collection of Arabic short stories. She wrote this story when she realized that most of us don't show the people we love who we really are. We try our best to hide the personalities we think he won't like. Each person is composed of many individual structures or many personalities or what we should call subpersonalities. The first key to success in your relationships and in all areas of your life is to understand your personality and accept it all. In this way, you are aware of all parts of your being and can therefore experience who you truly are. The story is about two engaged people, the girl and her boyfriend Fuad. They showed themselves the best of them so they liked each other, but after marriage and living together they will discover who they really are. The girl woke up and thought about her boyfriend. She thought she might be unfair to him while showing him her best side and best personality. They may divorce after the union as they may not accept each other. She went to her boyfriend's house after getting straight out of bed, he opened the door and didn't know her at first. In fact, showing who they really are before marriage made him reconsider and he broke off their engagement by telling her family that he will travel abroad and doesn't know when he will return. He was right about what he did. They deserve to know what they will face after the union and how they will see each other to avoid complications after marriage. She thought he would accept her as she is, but he was shocked when he saw her. He was only after the appearance not the c...... middle of paper ...... and a woman should have personalities that match each other, they will most likely be the opposite of each other. For example, a businessman who is firm with his employees will be attracted to a woman who is kind and gentle with other people. Bottom line, what the girl did was strange. It didn't come from his primary personality. It was one of her subpersonalities that made her think that Fuad would accept her no matter what she looked like. Fuad didn't deserve her because he didn't accept her true personality. When you get married to someone, you should be honest about your personality and not deceive each other. You have to make sure you find someone to praise him so as not to complete them. Oprah Winfrey said: “You should never look for someone to complete you. A relationship is made up of two whole individuals. Look for someone complementary...not supplementary”.
