Ten: Okay, you used to be me. You've done all this before. What happens next? Eleven: I don't remember. Ten: How can you forget this? Eleven: Hey! Hang on, it’s not my fault. You were obviously not paying enough attention.
Moffat likes to rhyme in his speeches about the Doctor. Eleven liked to suppress his feelings because it hurt too much. It just took him turning into Twelve to realize it wasn't always constructive to think that way.
The Tenth Doctor wasn't exactly open to expressing his feeling either. He was the most open with Donna because of the dynamic of their friendship.
Better for Moffat to try and tie up lose ends to Rivers story sooner rather than later. Her death and relationship with the Doctor loses significance if us viewers can't mourn her properly.
