I'm going to be honest here.
She's communicating.
You're not.
Start listening. Start talking.
She doesn't like getting nice expensive things? Don't give them to her.
Save the money for future needs.
She feels like you expect too much?
Share your appreciation for what she does. "Wow. Thank you so much for making the bed. I wouldn't have thought of doing that. You're better at this than I am."
Take this as an exercise in communication.
All those little things you observe but say nothing about?
Yeah, you need to start mentioning those.
Men get by on body language. Women need it vocalized.
Otherwise we're left floundering wondering what in the world you're thinking. And usually (sadly enough) we assume you're thinking we're not good enough.
