How to fail a relationship in 10 days

When you're in love, you invariably think it will last. Otherwise you wouldn't even start a relationship. When you do have someone, invariably you will - sometime in the (near) future - fight each other. Or at least have an argument over some foolish reason. And that is when All-hollow's Eve comes in advance. Everything you kept hermetically sealed inside yourself comes tumbling down out of thin air. You say things you don't mean to. You hurt each other. You pay each other back whatever you've done (or haven't done). That is when you realize how much high a price is not being able to communicate effectively. Just after, you also realize you must take nothing for granted. Ever. Finally, if you're lucky enough, you will learn that the inability to discuss your feelings can cost you dear. It really can.
