flwydCommunication requires both parties to agree in advance about the basic constituents. Once basic communication has been established, more complex messages can be constructed.
Thus, when two people know each other well, they can communicate quite subtly. But when you'd like to send the message "I'd like to get to know you," doing so subtly assumes a shared communications protocol that hasn't been established. It's like trying to send your username before you establish an ssh connection. The message will not be understood and summarily dropped on the floor.
