  • Does this sound familiar?

  • Your partner does n't get something done or does n't do something you want them to do,

  • and you 're immediately frustrated and thinking to yourself, what the heck, why are n't they doing it?

  • And on the other side, your partner is sitting there like.

  • What just happened?

  • What the F just happened?

  • Why am I getting the shark eye?

  • And before you know it, you 're back in that same argument that you 've had over and over and over,

  • and it seems like nothing is changing.

  • And if this strikes a nerve, and I'm sure it does, you are probably living inside what we call implicit agreements,

  • things that actually feel very real, but were never spoken about.

  • Out loud.

  • You see, there are rules in relationship that you didn't realize you were creating.

  • Things that you inside your head just thought like, well, my partner should just know.

  • And these things are silently causing you major problems.

  • And what's tricky is because it feels so true for you don't even question it.

  • It's just obvious.

  • Hello.

  • And the wild thing is the thing that you think is going to make you feel right in that moment.

  • Thing that's setting your partner up to fail.
