There a tropey shipping conflict that comes up in all types of media:
A = intensely feeling, but emotionally constipated person
B = deeply in love with A
B tells A that they need to communicate their emotions, feelings, problems, or they will walk away. A can't because they are terrified of being hurt if B can't take it. B walks away (usually temporarily).

Frankly, I think this is absolutely healthy and reasonable for B and A. A and B can't have a good relationship if A is always operating from a place of fear. I still end up irrationally angry at B. 10% is like "B can't be A's therapist every time there's some conflict between the two" but 90% of me is like "B should KNOW A has never learned conflict in a safe space; why try a relationship with them when you know this is going to be a problem" It's very frustrating.
