Does it have the same impression in English. For example:
A: John failed his exams again
B: He was asking for it since he did not study for the exams.
A: John failed his exams again
B: He was asking for it since he did not study for the exams.

In this context, it has a different meaning.
it would mean that he wanted to pass the exam. so , in this case, you can say ' 彼はそれを望んでいたんだ。’ kare wa sore o nozon de itanda.
