Avantika Maliks social media posts often drop hints about her state of mind. Her latest cryptic post talks about the importance of not shutting doors on relationships, based on assumptions and anger.

Avantika Malik's social media posts often drop hints about her state of mind. Imran Khan's estranged wife's latest cryptic post reads: "When valued personal relationships go silent, trouble often follows. I am not talking about productive 'time-outs' that are clearly expressed. I'm talking about silence than is reactive, or an attempt to do harm. This kind of silence ensures that the connection will not find its was back to health. Because silence fosters confusion, projections, and worst of all — assumptions about what the other is feeling or thinking. And assumption doesn't get us anywhere good. Inquiry does."
The message continued, "Assumptions ensure that the wall will only get thicker until there is no way to reconnect. Whatever you do, even if you are justifiably angry, try to keep the door to inquiry open. You may not be ready to process the experience but allow for the possibility that you one day will. Because valued connections are hard to find in this crazy world. Anger doesn't have to be the end of the story. Sometimes the portal to a closer connection. Sometimes, it's the way through to great learning. Inquiry is the bridge."
