Hidden Expectation

If you loved me, you would know what I think, feel, want, and you would give it to me. Since you don’t, you obviously don’t care. So why should I care for you, or for what you think, feel, say, want or do? So when you tell me what you want, I won’t be interested. I will be withholding. 

Resolved

I cannot assume that you know. 
I will ask you for what I want and not expect you to know.
