    Nah, some people just really suck at being assertive (and/or have really bad social anxiety).

      I feel like if somebody has horrible social anxiety, your partner complaining for you, in front of you, probably ain’t much better. I know I would find the situation embarrassing as hell.

        That’s true, but sometimes I definitely need a little push from someone in situations like this.
