Mr Bean - relationship guru?

Recently, I went to youtube and caught some Mr Bean shows.Everyone knows Mr Bean, the more-action-less-words comedian which we all love and hate at the same time.
Somehow, after watching some videos. I feel like we can all learn from Mr Bean...
Like for relationships between people to say the very least.
This video proves everything that we should not do in a dyadic communication. Somehow after watching this video, I feel that Mr Bean lack in communication skills. It is obvious that the girlfriend need some space off. But he ignores it and keeps coming after her. This only leads to the autonomy-togetherness dialectic which is the start of the retreat from intimacy. From the looks of it, it looks like they are heading to the avoiding stage.
This only teaches you one thing, don't force yourself into something you want, yet what your partner does not want. It only makes things difficult. The things you do so hard to achieve to the bonding stage will just vanish in a swirl through all the retreat from intimacy stages.
And this brought up a question: Why is it that humans do that we retreat from intimacy so fast? When all this time, we spend it on building relationships? Hmmm...
