'Getting our needs met'

Unproductive habits include waiting for him to read our mind, making him wrong for not doing so, and punishing him for it. Some couples really have stamina and can do this for years on end. Their communication consists of bickering, unresolved fights, lobbing emotional grenades at each other because they’re not ‘getting their needs met’. Let me tell you: nobody was put on this earth to meet our needs. I know; nobody likes to hear that.
