I think you need to step back and concentrate on forgiving. Like really letting go of all the resentment that you have built up in you.
He can't mindread you all the time and you can't EXPECT him to do what you want when he doesn't know what to do. It's the expectations that you have to purge yourself of.
Even if this R doesn't work out, I have a feeling that this "problem" (sorry to use that term but I don't know what else to call it) is going to follow you to every R you have.
If you two get M, I have a feeling you're going to feel that way about your kids too if they don't do what you think they should.
It's more a matter of doing it for yourself. You don't want to live with hate, anger, bitterness and resentment in you. Maybe you have to do some kind of cleansing ritual or some kind of religious talk about forgiveness.
Just my 2cents.
