Whatever the problem is, being straightforward is always the solution
"Nobody will do anything according to your expectation. You want something? ... Say it ... Tell that person you want him/her to stay ... Tell that person to hold your hand. Tell your friend that you want to talk because you're depressed ... Tell your mother you want her to cook your favourite food. Don't stay silent and expect people to read your mind ... Nobody is a mind reader ... If someone does something even before you say it, it's a miracle ... But miracles don't keep happening always. Say it ... Speak up for your own happiness ... You want something from a person, say it to that person. If you say what you want, two things may happen: 1) You will get it. 2) You won't get it and you'll realize your value and priority in that person's life. Either way it's better than keeping something inside your mind and getting disappointed when it doesn't happen. Whatever the problem is, being straightforward is always the solution ... Always !...
