“i am sick and tired of coming second in your life, I want a divorce”

WHAT HE HEARS ; “she wants a divorce”
What she actually means; I want to feel loved
I want to be respected
I want to be considered more important than sport
I want your attention more than sport
Her suggestion ; divorce is her suggestion of getting out of a “less loving relationship to a more respected one

What to do: Watch TV less when she is around.
Give her your attention.
Spend more time with her

“IF YOU DON’T LAND A NEW ACCOUNT by THE END OF NEXT MONTH, YOU WILL BE FIRED

Boss suggestion ;if you don’t get more fund, everyone doesn’t get more fund,company wont have fund. Less salary. Retrenchment of workers, everyone would go out of job

What to do; approach the boss with a work plan that shows you are trying to generate client for company.
