Why is communication so difficult?

Why is it so hard for people to sinply say what they want and need?

Why is it so hard for people to express their feelings, good, bad and all the inbetween?

Why are we so unwilling to listen when someone tells us these things?

It seems to me that a lot of issues in the world could be solved if we just had good communication skills.

@NerdyPotato Hahaha... that directness can sometimes be a curse, though...
@HootyTheNightOwl only in the presence of neurotypical people. We manage just fine among each other.

@NerdyPotato True... but the negotiation stage still feels weird for those of us who acquire their diagnosis later in life.
