You know, LL, I got kind of a wild thought when I read your post. So, you've told your H X, Y, and Z about what you need from him, yet he doesn't know how to implement your suggestions. You also mentioned the cue card analogy. What if you left sticky notes in odd places around the house to tell him what you want today? For example: - Leave one in his pants pocket that says, "Call me at 10:30 and tell me you love me." - Put one on the shower door that says, "give me a deep kiss ON THE LIPS before you leave for work." - Put one on his comb that says, "when you come downstairs for breakfast, come up behind me, put your arms around me and kiss my neck."
Perhaps leave one for him each day. Over time, hopefully by him actually doing these things, they'll sink in and become more "instinctive." Frankly, maybe you REALLY do need cue cards!
