I feel safe when I know I have a clear understanding of a situation and what's expected of me (job wise or just socially). I don't like having to make what most people would call "and educated guess" because more often than not, my way of thinking about things doesn't jive with what others are thinking and I wind up looking like an idiot.
Anyone else.  |
I know exactly what you mean! I am the same way. My sister and I have had a lot of issues because of it; besides, she never comes right out and says what she means--she actually expects people to guess and read her mind. Like, one time, she and her husband wanted to drive to Oregon to see some of our family (I live in washington) but they weren't sure if they could afford the gas and were hoping I'd offer to go in with them and help pay for the gas, but my sis didn't just come out and ask me. She just said, "Me and ***** are thinking of going to Oregon to see Mom." Then, later, she got mad at me because I didn't just know that I was "supposed to" jump in and say, "I'll go with you and pay for the gas."
