Make your dissatisfaction with a working colleague or a loving partner clear, even at the risk of having an argument. You're tired of their insensitive behaviour. Although you have different emotional needs, your other half should be considerate of this fact. Instead of making teasing remarks, they can offer positive feedback. Rather than staying focused on their own work, they can relieve you of some dreaded chores from time to time. In return, you can give your other half the kind of support they want.
