Do You Know What You Want
It's a great feeling when you get what you want without asking for it. It makes you feel like the giver knew you so well. But sometimes you have to ask for what you want if you want to have any chance at getting it. This is especially true for relationships.
What Do You Need from a Romantic Relationship?
Before you can ask a man to meet your needs, you have to have a clear understanding of what they are. In order to do that, you have to look inward. What do you need from a man that you don't already have alone? What do you want from a man? What behavior will you absolutely not tolerate from a man? Answering questions like these will help you make out a list of all of the things you want from a romantic relationship.
Armed with your list, look at the relationship you have now. Is your list being fulfilled, or are you settling? Is it somewhere in between? Now that you know where you stand, you can start to make the necessary changes. You have to remember, however, that you have to ask for what you want. Tell your partner how you feel, and challenge him to help you solve your problems and to give you the support you require. Men are natural problem-solvers and this is a better way to communicate your desires than complaining and nagging.
