Is it just me, or maybe because I am female... How is it that I can anticipate what other people need or want but they can't seem to do it for me? Why do I always have to ask my husband to do things around the house when I don't have time to do them myself, but I instinctively know what needs to be done & when? Why do I have to request that we go to the store after I get off work when he's been sitting at home on the couch all night or most of the day, knowing that we're out of (insert household need here)? How come I can get up, see he has an empty water glass & fill it, while mine will sit next to me for hours & he's gotten his own rations two or three times?

I've tried to explain to him 'what it is that I do' when I do things for him, but he just doesn't get it.

Any thoughts?
