At times you think that the other person is thinking this, or doing that and really...they are thinking the same thing about you.

Funny huh?

So, when you are busy telling yourself this, the other person is busy with the same occupation. So in the end, you both do not help the situation.

Could be a thing of egos...
Could be a thing of being shy/timid...
Could be a thing of being self-conscious...

Whatever it is, please be aware of when it is happening and be ready to confront the issue head on!

Otherwise, in future, you will find yourself whining with each other about how you both were being 'paranoid'.

These thoughts are from an interesting 'whining' conversation with a friend :-)
