As enyafriend said: They can't stand on their own. Even though they may mean the same thing. They just simply must work in pairs. That's the way things are.
Now THAT seems like something you can't keep track on. To know when they must work in pairs and when they musn't or doesn't.

Japanese definitely has grammatical rules, it is just they are very different from Western languages, especially when it comes to writing. It takes time, but you will unlock the clues and I promise it will make more sense...just stick with it. We have all been there.
