[quote=Anonymous]I think people think about things in different ways. My husband is very emotionally supportive. He talks to me about my life, asks my thoughts about various things, shares anecdotes he thinks I'll enjoy, remembers who my friends are and if there are significant things going on that may cause me extra emotional work. In the past, when he was less supportive overall, it was mostly due to us having different roles in the family and different approaches to our various tasks. I am the primary parent and manage the household schedule and calendar. I am the one who does the grocery shopping and meal planning. I remember when people need appointments and make the appointments. He pays some bills and does some specific chores, but he did not really consider all the background household management stuff that I do when he thought about "my stress level." In the past couple of years, we have each been able to take time for personal travel and he has experienced single parenting in a more meaningful way that helps him understand what "my emotional support needs" are actually based on.[/quote]
