"We need to talk"

When you're in a relationship, nothing brings chills running up and down one's spine than to hear these four words. Here you are, thinking your relationship is going great. Then one day...BAM!

"We need to talk."

Because it means trouble. It's the kiss of death. Most of the time anyway. I can't think of a situation when that line yielded good results. Interesting though, most of that time, it's the women who utters it. It's the usual intro to a relationship talk. Honestly, it could be a signal of the beginning of the end.

Of course, what you'll talk about might be something innocent. It doesn't necessarily signal the end of a beautiful relationship. Then again, it might.

What are you supposed to do?

Brace yourself. Seriously. Cross your fingers that it's nothing life-changing. Hope to high heavens that someone's simply having a bad day and needing to vent so badly. Otherwise, you're in for a long talk.
