What's it all about

Modern mores would have us believe that people who truly love each other can read each other's minds. They don't have to ask for things, or say I'm sorry, or I love you, or tell you anything. If you really love them, you will know!

Hogwash!

If you really love them, you will tell them what is important to you and talk with them about what is important to them.

Communication is probably the most important connection two people have. Don't set each other up to fail by implying, or testing, or any of those awful things you see in movies.

There can still be misunderstandings, but once again communication comes into play along with playing fair and realizing everyone can make a mistake.

Life is not about winning, because that can actually be losing. Strong silent types and passive aggressive types and drama queens can be very lonely people.

How hard can it be? (Well, actually it can be hard,) but talk to each other.

And listen.
