The Desire Gap: Real Solutions for Couples with Mismatched Sex Drives

When You're Bummed That You Have to ASK...


Listen Later

It's common for people to feel upset and disappointed about having to ask for what you want. This is especially true if you believe you shouldn’t have to ask, and that your partner should "just know" what to do for you (whether that's in bed, in flirting, foreplay communication, or romantic gestures). After all, we see that played out in movies and TV all the time: the magic intuiting of the partner's needs. 

But while it's common to think "they should just know," it also tends to make you feel awful, creates distance and resentment in your relationship, and doesn't help you get what you want.

Tune in to this episode to find out how to free yourself from this belief system and get more of what you're craving.
