Talking, and I have learned through my loving partner that I have to say exactly what I need otherwise it might lead to misunderstanding or disappointment
I just talk to her. She tells me to suck it up or we'll be living under a bridge if I don't.
I'm pretty bad at actually letting her know in a good way. I always sound too demanding or needy.
Ask?
Talking helps a lot.
I have learned through my loving partner that opening up and talking out an issue is the best way to be happy.
Say out what you need as a person then in the course of the talk;you will feel better when the guy/lady says something that will make you feel relieved and happy.
Talking and opening up is essential.

She's pretty much always aware.
He can usually sense when I'm having a bad day:) he always does his best to make me feel better. I'm so thankful.
Tell him or he would never notice
She just has this way of reading me and knows when to ask. She also just let's me vent.
I just tell him, though sometimes he can sense when I'm upset. Still, I don't expect him to read my mind (even if he does most of the time). It's always best to communicate with your partner, especially when looking for some encouragement!
The best way is to tell him.
um..call him in the middle of the night crying?
I'm going to start to ask when I need it instead of keep to myself. We're 1 million times stronger together than alone.
During times of situational stress and problem solving...I need a little eye contact
When I seem less stable and physically calm and emotionally less positive
