Although you may feel like you've already told your partner a million times what you want, is there a chance you may have been asking in the wrong way?
Is there a possibility that your "requests" may be coming off to your partner as "complaints"?
Are your requests specific enough to where your partner won't have to do any mind-reading or guessing about what it would take to help fulfill your requests?
Are you able to break your requests down into small enough actions that would satisfy you, to lessen the chances of them thinking, "No matter what I do, it's never enough"?
How's your timing? As Michele says, we're all pretty sure about the times to guarantee failure, but when are the times you are more likely to achieve success? The places?
If things have been rocky in your relationship for awhile, might you be asking for too much, too soon? If so, what little signs might you be satisfied with for right now, with hopes that more will come in the not-too-distant future?
