[quote=Anonymous]OP I would be annoyed by much of what you describe. But I would assume it is just because it does not come naturally to him and he did not have any models for this. Now and then I might drop in a few statements about how specific things make you feel, so even if it doesn’t come naturally to him he can learn what the effects of his behaviors are. For example, my husband used to basically walk away and leave me alone if I was upset, either because I was sick or had a really hard day or something. He had no idea this might bother me because he said that when he is upset he wants to be alone so that was normal to him. I said that for me, I preferred some kind of company or assistance if things were going badly for me. It really helped me to have that conversation.[/quote]
