Swirlygirl: It seems that the issue for "Troubled" wasn't a failure to communicate with his lady friend, but a faltering of his own confidence that he was doing The Right Thing by her.

Troubled said, "We got the issue settled [beforehand], but as [the date of the concert] got closer and closer I got more and more troubled by it." Apparently, he just needed a little reassurance that he wasn't being grossly impolite.

So... all you want in life is "a cottage and two kids and some dough to bake..." and no husband? (Well, that would reduce the Drama Factor! LOL!)
