Step Number 3 - Ask For What You Want

[Meredith]

And the means....

Have you worn out the phone?

Definitely worn out the phone

Does email work better? or vice versa?

I could try email, but I would never know if he read it or not.

Are you too reactive with email, sending every little thought or sending too fast and you regret it?

I’m too reactive with everything, but haven’t really sent a serious email about the situation.

Is talking in person better? What is your body language like?

Body language may be a big key here. I am frustrated, upset and scared to death. I’m sure that comes across to him even when I try to keep an upbeat attitude. I will try to work on that…and it may be better to email for now.
