If you want the answer you have to ask the question

You can't expect anyone to know what you need. If you need something then let them know. You can't get upset that you didn't get the answer you needed if you didn't ask the question you wanted an answer to. You will never know if you can do something if you never try to do it. If you make your decision without getting the facts then for a fact you may make the wrong decision. Even when you get all the facts you could still make the wrong decision but at least you know for a fact that you did so only after you considered all the facts. Without facts you are taking an uneducated guess.
