Good topic. I think the idea of asking for what you need is very powerful, and empowering.
I have also found that it is very empowering when I can return to a topic that maybe bugged me or that I didn't feel resolved in a way that I could sit with comfortably. To be able to ask again, or to re-examine something using different words or a new perspective is something that brings new aspects and greater depth to the relationship.
