[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I told my husband explicitly what I wanted several weeks ago. We also discussed our Father’s Day plans in the same discussion.

I would love for him to intuit that I need to sleep in, want breakfast from this particular bakery, and want it delivered to me in bed before we go to see my sister and her children, then he takes off with our kids to see his mother while I relax with my sister. But it’s really unlikely that he’ll do so and frankly I’m in my 30s and don’t need to settle for some kind of half-assery, so my make my wishes known up front.

NP and it’s called “clear communication.”[/quote]

A friend and I got married around the same time and I was always so shocked when she was extremely direct and explicit on what she expected for every holiday. But 20+ years later and after reading these boards, I think she was right. It doesn’t come naturally to everyone and she taught them how she wanted to be loved. [/quote]
