Sometimes it's a kind of barely conscious manipulativeness. Can't say what you want, maybe can't even say to yourself what you want, but try to manipulate others into giving you what you want.
I used to do this a lot, especially with my husband. I didn't want what he wanted, but didn't really know what I wanted or how to express it, so I would just be difficult and negative.
