The Silent Treatment And Other Communication Tactics We Use That Men Hate
Don’t set men up to fail
I get it: you want your partner to want to stay for your parents’ anniversary party. The thing is that, he doesn’t. Who would want to do that over a fun trip to Vegas? Even you’d rather go to Vegas! Fortunately, what your partner does want is to make you happy. So just tell him what would do that. If skipping the Vegas trip to make you happy makes him happy, then that’s enough. He doesn’t have to be thrilled about the anniversary party.
