Yes! Seriously. Can’t tell you how many guys have stuck me on a pedestal only to be disappointed when I didn’t literally read their minds to know what they were thinking or what they wanted from me. We are not magically perceptive in every moment! We need men to communicate out loud in words. Some men seem to view any kind of assertiveness as too much aggression or too much vulnerability. But those are the men who get mad when women inevitably end up with men who do communicate.
