Remember Your Spouse is NOT Psychic

This morning, I felt a bit anxious about something and wanted my husband to talk me through it and change my mood. He did and it worked. But it only worked because I told him that I needed him and helped him to help me. I asked him to talk to me and gave some possible topics to discuss. Some women would have suffered in silence and waited in vain for a conversation to start. Then they would have resented that their husbands did not meet their needs. But you have to remember your spouse is NOT psychic. How will he or she know you want to talk unless you let them know directly?
