In this chapter we talked about stereotypes and how we normally aren't correct when we don't know someone. My current event is about that, making mistakes.
I thought I knew my boyfriend pretty well, but it wasn't until a couple days ago when I actually know him. We have been going out for about 2 years now and its hard to believe that I just now know him and what I mean to him. A couple days ago I told him some bad news and thought we would break up FOR SURE, but he didn't. I couldn't believe that we didn't, but that was alright for me. I thought that because of what I told him that he would break up with me (stereotype) I thought that almost everyone who would gave their boyfriends that bad of news would not stay together. I was died wrong, I fell for the fundamental attribution error. I thought that people would just break up without actually knowing what would happen. In the end I found out that my boyfriend isn't like that stereotype I thought he fell in and that he cares about me very very much and that I am very important to him.
