The DNA Of Relationships, By Dr. Smalley

Relationships are seen everywhere at all times, there are many different types of relationships. There are relationships between students and teachers, mother and father, an employee and their boss, and there are romantic relationships. All these types of relationships mentioned, plus many more, have an impact on our daily life no matter where we are. In the science fiction novel, Fahrenheit 451, written by Ray Bradbury the relationships in that society are very distinct from the ones present in today's society. Ray Bradbury creates a very interesting twist on how people's perspectives on relationships have been changing throughout the years. The lack of communication in Fahrenheit 451’s society has a negative effect on relationships because it prevents wisdom from spreading to younger people and to new generations, causes people to lose self worth, and it causes isolation to those in relationships.

Charles Berger through Uncertainty Reduction Theory proposes that the beginnings of personal relationships are filled with uncertainties. Berger suggests that anticipation of future interaction, incentive value, or deviance can boost our drive to reduce

People tend to base their self-worth on others’ opinions and most importantly, if they are lovable. Kipnis asks the questions, “But isn’t it a little depressing to think we are somehow incapable of inventing forms of emotional life based on anything other than subjugation?” (Kipnis, 410). This question poses a very interesting subject of how love and peoples’ value of themselves undoubtedly correlate. We depend on love to be able to feel fulfilled, yet love involves always having someone around. This might sound nice to some people, but to me, having to be around someone almost constantly sounds exhausting with no escape. I believe that relationships make people feel safe since they feel cared for and validated, and therefor are content living a life always having to appease

Given the proper investment of time and effort, this book will assist any believer in both repairing their interpersonal relationships as well as assisting in the eternal redemption of others. Thompson once convinced of the validity of this patter, both re-thought and re-taught everything he was doing in the field of evangelism. The pattern consists of seven concentric circles that represent seven different levels of relationships. Beginning with one’s self moving progressively outward through family, relatives, friends, neighbors and associates, acquaintances to person X (that unexpected kingdom connection). The author then leads the reader through a seven step process that helps insure that each relationship is whole and accessible to the Holy Spirits uninterrupted flow. That process begins with getting right. This encompasses the clearing of past offenses, getting right with God, yourself and others as mentioned in Matthew 5:23-24. The readers is then led to precede to survey existing relationships. This helps to determine those previously overlooked opportunities to share Christ love. Thirdly, we are to assume a posture of prayer, allowing God’s Holy Spirit to work in and through us in intercession and reconciliation. The fourth step in the process is the building of relational bridges into the lives of those God has revealed to us. These bridges are reinforced by step five, the showing of God’s love

Throughout history, fear has been used to control and influence the way people act toward one another. Widespread fear, the use of terror and suspicion to turn a population against a large group of people, has led to the unlawful conviction of innocent people through the means of false and fabricated evidence in an attempt to be sure that those in question under the law are convicted—whatever that conviction may be. Those that are responsible for this widespread fear are those that have power within the community; a political leader, a well-respected citizen, or even those without such authority that have the ability to spread false, prejudice, or fabricated information throughout the community.

The purpose of this study has three parts; see if there is any relationship between parental parentification and present romantic relationship security and happiness, examines how insecure attachment styles in adulthood translate to romantic relationships, and determines if parental health alters the variables previously stated. In the article, three hypotheses were developed. First, parental parentification would be negatively associated with current college women’s relationship happiness and security. Second, insecure attachment styles would control how paternal parentification effects both the happiness and security of a romantic relationship. Third the health conditions of children’s fathers would influence the children’s confidence in

The author is making it clear that relationships work in all different ways. Whether positive or negative relationships can be hard to control.

Want partner but do not get rid of the fear by past relationships? Love is one of the best feelings and one of the best feelings we enjoy living beings, and although it is true that there are times when love can finish and ended up suffering from this failed relationship, it is no less true that later or later we will present a new opportunity to enjoy it again. However, there are times when you start a new relationship gives us vertigo and much fear of a possible new failure.

Looking within one of my majors, I have peaking interest in the social field of psychology. Something I find myself often observing and trying to come to conclusions about is the interaction between romantic partners and the romantic relationships we find ourselves in. Last semester, I wrote a paper for my Women and Gender Studies course about relationships and why people stay in bad relationships. I observe the situations my friends are in and how some of them feel like they need a relationship while others are anti-commitment and relationships. It’s very interesting how society, how we were raised, and our experiences shape us and how we seek relationships.

Secure: The most healthy and lasting relationship,because couple both really trust and love each other, their roles in the relationship is equal, the ratio of autonomy, certainty and openness are perfectly balance. They love spending time with each other but they can also be independent when is needed, they are not afraid of showing their weakness to each other, because they have confident in them self and trust in the other. We will see a lot of behaviors that show they really know and love each other like always order each other's favorite food and avoid things the other do not like.

Everyone has struggled with their identity and belonging during a chapter of their life. There comes a time when our opinions and beliefs begin to differ from those around us. During this time, some people may discover which relationships they belong in, and those which they may not. However relationships are important

It’s crazy to think that fear can get the best of someone. When you are in fear, you normally don’t do what you normally do because it’s something you are not used to. It can take control over your life and affect you in many different ways. People always tell you that you actually have to do what you fear the most to overcome the horror. Fear normally happens when someone overthinks a situation or even a object. When you turn fear on, it is very similar to turning on a light switch, you start thinking of the worse case scenarios. For me, my fear was heights. Now, I know most people have a fear of heights which is why some people won’t climb a mountain, fly in the air, or even ride a rollercoaster. Luckily, I am one of those people who are

Now, that your eyes have begun to open about the relationship. Fear now begins to shadow you. Especially with having no one to talk with, because of his manipulation tactics. Distancing yourself from all of your family and friends. Once again convincing yourself that he was the one. Giving him full control over your life, trying to please his every want and need. Not considering yourself, as long as he was giving you the attention that he felt you so desperately needed.

There are many points of tension within the Body of Christ due to imperfect people and their inability to communicate love perfectly. People are supposed to practice love and with practice comes mistakes. Earth’s purpose is to act as an education on for us all to ask ourselves “how better can we love” (Drummond, 36). Specifically, tensions arise when we become envious or prideful. Since there are often others doing better than us, the temptation to be competitive presents itself often. Pride is common because humility is difficult. Drummond suggests that after some

Communication has never been a strong behavioural competency for me when it comes to fostering relationships. I realize that building on relationships is about the work that you put into them to develop a mutual benefit for each other, and that they are essential when are dependent upon them, but I have found myself always closing off when it becomes overwhelming for me to have control over my own personal life; I push those away who care about me when I struggle to face my own failures. I lack the communication or the value in contributing to the friendship because my actions are not always there to display the importance of their friendship.
