How to meet needs?

Very often we think we can openly communicate our expectations. Needs in a relationship arouse great emotions, and their unmet needs give rise to frustration. Meanwhile, open communication in a relationship yields the best results when it is based on mutual respect. If you want to talk about your needs – choose the best time for it. It is best to communicate your expectations when you are calm and manage to regulate your emotions. Don;t do it when you and your partner are tired or angry. It should be conversation full of respect.

You should also be wary of an accusatory tone. When your partner does not meet your needs, tell him or her gently, sensitively and respectfully. Also remember that while you have the right to openly communicate your needs, your partner may refuse to meet them. Respect boundaries and work out compromises that are satisfactory to both parties.
