Romcoms are notorious for it as so many plots come down to a refusal to stop and communicate

    Good one. Yeah, there's some misunderstanding, and she yells at him and stomps out, and he never bothers to say "I wasn't even there, I was at work." But then you wouldn't have 90 minutes of hijinx as he goes on some half-baked but romantic plan to win her back, involving a hot air balloon and dynamite.

    Instead of just telling her what really happened.

    I mean, if my experience is any indication, she won't listen... But then again, it turns out my wife was passive aggressively trying to get me to leave her for years but I was too oblivious to get her hints...
