Dear Katie:

I think you need to communicate with him honestly and simply about this problem. Take the middle way between “waiting to see what he’s going to do”- the passive way, and what people often enough do, which is the extreme: getting angry, putting pressure, giving an ultimatum, and such.

The middle way would be a simple, honest communication: I need this from you, do you think my need is reasonable, can you and are you willing to do this. Your words, of course, but that kind of communication.
