My topic for today is a very sensitive one and we all might have differnt perspective about it and here's mine, I just hope I won't sound too ask-y(if there's ever a word like that).

Is it good to make demands from your spouse?

Like, let's say I need a particular favour, and fine, I know my spouse(be it male or female) might not have it, but I expect him/her to go extra miles to ensure I get it.

Is it good to make demands from your spouse? To me, I think it is!

In the beginning of your relationship, you worked on getting what you wanted from your partner. You may have compromised on some things, but overall you got what you wanted.

Life with them should be the same. We might get more of what we want at the beginning, but over time we have to learn how to get our needs met.

When we are single, we learn how to balance getting what we want with being easy on others. We learn how to be sensitive to other people’s needs and not just our own.

It’s a pretty good skill. Unless we are using that skill against ourselves!

We get used to being sensitive to others’ needs and then we actually start to develop a sense of guilt when we think about making demands on our own spouse. We don’t want them to feel bad, so we don’t make demands on them. But by doing this, we are limiting the options of how they can help us to get what we want.

It is good to make demands from your spouse, but it depends on the kind of demands.

Good demands are ones for things that are worth it. Things that will bring you both joy or help life run more smoothly.

The best demands are ones that both of you can make together. For example, before you have children, you both decide that you want to raise them in a certain way. You make those demands together, and then you can get started on achieving your goals.

It’s a trick question because the answer is yes. It’s good to make demands from your spouse. We are wired to create, to invent, to push boundaries, to re-imagine.

Yes, it is who we are.

To overcome fear and doubt, we must be brave enough to say yes. We must be satisfied with nothing less than yes. We have to say yes to making demands at times not just for ourselves but for those around us. But this is not just about saying yes to ourselves and others, it is also about saying no to things that are holding us back.

Imagine what our lives could look like if we weren’t bound by fear and doubt? How much more could we do if we were free of self-inflicted limitations?

How much more could we love if we weren’t afraid of rejection? Rejections after making demands.

I know it’s hard to imagine but you can do it, right now….

It all goes back to saying yes to making demands. It makes us great. It makes us want to take on more and more and more. It makes us brave and strong and daring. It gives us the courage to do what we didn’t think was possible before.

It makes us brave and strong and daring.

Though many people take this for granted and might make unnecessary demands.

Many would insist on having what they know their spouse cannot afford knowing fully well about thir capacities, I would say that is very wrong and in this case making demands might go wrong as the said party might end up getting depressed or even commit an unnecessary mistake that might be harmful to their relationship.

No one said that making demands will be easy, both to the person making demands and the other partner, but we can make it better.

Making demands gives us the courage to do what we didn’t think was possible before.

That is why it’s good to make demands from your spouse – whether he or she knows it or not – because being your best self is a yes that you can give every day of your life.

Me personally asked some demands that i know my spouse could have... Its hard to demand something beyond his capacity to give or provide.. But we also need to help our spouse to work it out.

communication with requests from partners is very important because you will share good input for the continuity of your relationship with your partner, it's a better thing than just harboring feelings because it will be fatal. You will understand the pros and cons because communication and requests make you think for change.
