Why don't people TALK to their partners??

Sarah

I'm seeing so many topics being brought up on my feed lately, asking for opinions on certain situations in relationships, specifically 'If my husband/wife does X, what does that mean? What should I do?'

I'm asking this honestly because I'm ultimately confused, but has it not ever occurred to some people, that instead of getting the opinions of complete and utter strangers; wouldn't it be a bit better if they went and talked to their partner directly?

(And Yes, I realise that sometimes its not safe to do so; but I'm talking about the times that it IS. )
