The New Marriage - Part Three of Four
Harry Stack Sullivan, in The Interpersonal Theory of Psychiatry , argues that human beings have a biological drive to develop and establish interpersonal relationships. In Biological Basis for Human Social Behavior , R.A. Hind suggests that a person’s “attachment style”—the way in which they relate to other human beings and form relationships with them—is developed mostly during childhood. The attachment style tends to persist into adulthood but is not fixed and can be modified either positively or negatively as the result of further interactions.

Are You REALLY Happy In Your Relationship Or Have You Just Settled?
I recently read a study that indicated that 91% of all people in relationships were not happy. Now I can't tell you if this percentage is true, if it is an accurate portrayal of the average relationship or an exaggeration to get people’s attention. I don't know the details or particulars of the study as they were not given in very much depth. But the fact remains, that if 91% of the people surveyed felt this way, can we assume that many other people in general who were not surveyed are not happy as well? I don’t like to make assumptions but this number is really scary.

A Cure for Good-mate-itis
What is good-mate-itis? Good-mate-itis is a disease that we get when we are well-
nurtured, well-supported, and very content within our relationships. We feel little or no
challenge to make things better, and we feel it can’t get any worse. We begin to take

sleep. We are on automatic. BEWARE! This is the time when love falls apart. It falls apart
when we get good-mate-itis
