Setting pretend deadlines is never a good idea

I know many women who wait around for their guy to call or to make the effort in some way or another and set these deadlines for what they want. Basically you are building yourself up to almost for sure be disappointed. You should never let yourself say, well if he doesn't call by 9 I'm going to be pissed. Or if he doesn't send me flowers on my birthday then it's over! How the hell is the guy supposed to know what you want? Just because you set these pretend deadlines and ultimatums for him doesn't mean he has a clue that you want these things to happen. If you want him to call by 9, then call him. If you want him to get you flowers...well hope for the best and get over it if he doesn't, unless you are a girl who'd rather demand he do something just so he does and that makes you happy. The moral is, voice what you want, don't wait around and hope he will do it without you telling him what you want and then get disappointed when it doesn't happen. Men are clueless, they need more guidance then ever. And we wonder why the hell men can't figure us out ladies?
