I've seen this as well, and it irritates me.

And for those that are saying this behavior is to 'avoid conflict,' no, not necessarily. A group of girl friends I have was talking about this very subject, and most of them said they insisted that their husband be more sensitive to their moods and trying to figure out why they're in a mood.

My hubby is an Aspie. We agreed to a system of 'If you didn't ask for it, you can't complain you didn't get it.' And yes, I've gotten to use that on him, too. ;)

Yeah, I feel like you have no right to complain that someone should know why you're mad but doesn't if you never actually told them why. It's obnoxious. People aren't mind readers, if you're upset you need to tell them. It's amazing just how much smoother and easier that makes things.

An example from the other day:

Me: Hey, I'm free tonight, do you wanna do [Thing]?
Friend: Sorry, I'm kind of in a lousy mood and I don't really feel like doing anything right now.
Me: That's fine, we can do it later when you're feeling up to it!

So now I know not to bother her about it and she knows that she can come to me when she feels like she wants to do it. Simple, painless, and everyone is happy.
