My partner usually knows and he takes me out to the beach.
Phone call that begins with sobbing and tears!
If I need encouragement, I will tell him what is going on wrong, or what happened to me. I have learned communication is best, and not to expect him to read my mind. He is then really good at making me feel better.
Do not have to she knows before I have to ask.

i usually tell him if i'm having a bad week, and that i need something extra from him.
I try very hard to communicate to him the need for support, often I just have to tell him what is going on in my world/day and he will offer some solution or support. We just get each other without having to communicate verbally all the time.
Tell her that I need one
I tell him that I'm feeling nervous or worried or stressed about something and he gives me a hug and tells me everything will be ok. That's all I need is for him to say it will be ok.
No need to let them know. They should just know.
I ask for a hug.
Usually tell him that I have had a bad day or feeling bad about myself that day and that is his cue.
I have no idea.
