See, it's perfectly fine to not be able to communicate while wrangling with emotions, as long as there is (positive) attention brought to attention afterwards. Many people struggle with that as that may feel like opening up a closed wound, but this makes communication and understanding the other party much easier.

What I'm trying to say is: The partner paying attention is a thing that can be taught, if that person is willing to learn.

I myself am oblivious to most body language and can only go on things people have told me. I suck at relationships.
