Actually, I've just realised that's useless advice - it's not that he doesnt' know what you want, he's choosing to ignore it
I had similar too ... my H was a big conflict avoider so used to agree to things then not do them. it hurt. Especially when he promised "yes I WILL come round on Thursday, and I won't change my mind" then I'd get a text to say he wasn't coming ... the only way I got through all of that was with patience and going off and GAL ... even when it hurt so much.
