Relationships Class Analysis

Towards the beginning of the article the communication of affection in relationships was discussed in great length. As reading through this, I was reminded of some concepts that I have studied previously regarding the five love languages. There is a book that describes these as being: words of affirmation, quality time, receiving gifts, acts of service and physical touch. This book is really interesting because it outlines that each person has a primary and secondary love language and it argues that those in relationships should be aware of the love language of the other person and use the love language on their partner and vice versa. When the article was talking about how that communication of affection is the main providing foundation for all intimate relationships and how this can determine satisfaction and security in

I hope this letter finds you well and that you are prospering and in good health. First, let me express my appreciation for your letter of apology concerning the twitter post by the preaching professors at Southwestern Seminary. I saw the post and was more disheartened more than I was upset or angry. I chose to wait awhile, gather my thoughts, and let things die down a little before I responded.

With the divorce rate at over fifty percent, what can be done to keep love alive? What is the secret to a happy marriage? These are questions that Gary Chapman explores and defines in The Five Love Languages: How to Express Heartfelt Commitment to Your Mate. If couples are to communicate effectively with each other they must learn the language with whom they want to communicate. This book explores the five emotional love languages and the way couples speak and understand emotional love. Specifically the emotional love language a husband or wife would consider as their primary “love language”. Couples may be expressing what they know is

Before the start of this summer session, I had heard other students talk about how the group class was an amazing class, how it was so unstructured and even intense at times. I didn’t understand what they meant by unstructured or any of that till we had our first session. The group is pretty much open to talk about anything anyone wants to talk about. I think this is what made me more nervous than I thought I would be. Since there is no set/common topic, I worry that everyone might not be able to relate to every topic that a member brings in. I find myself constantly thinking about what to bring in to the group and what not to. Yalom’s eleven therapeutic factors were very useful as it gave me a better understanding of the group process and

n D.A.R.E. class, it teaches us about friendship, peer pressure, positive choices, how it advertise, decision making and drug effects about drugs. I think everybody should take this type of class because when you are a teen, you might run into this. At least once in your life, you will get pressured into doing something related with drugs. This D.A.R.E. class will give you tips for later on in your life. Friendship can be a good thing, but if you are not careful, it will be bad. It can become bad by doing something bad, just like offering a certain kind of drug. What I learned, you can say no, changing the subject, walking away, giving a reason, and there is many more. A true friend will never offer a drug, if you are a true friend offering

I am not sure if a letter can adequately describe how much you have encouraged me, challenged me, and helped me through college. I very much appreciate all you have done for me and for others. You have taught me so much not only through the content of your classroom, but also with the way you live your life and talk about the Lord. I don’t want to make this letter too long, so I’ll just share a couple ways you have impacted my life outside of installing a passion for IO and Social in me. What I learned and gained from your classes is more than I could ever imagine and more than any text book could’ve taught me.

Social classes separate citizens into different groups purely based on income. My initial idea of this concept of these groups was way off than that of the actual standards. My understanding was that the rich would have a regular income of about 650,000$ to above and that they have a stable job and can take care of their bills and necessities while still having a sum of money left over. They would live in nicer areas than other social classes and be financially okay to leave their job and retire at an earlier age than most other classes. The middle class would have to have an annually income of about 50,000$ to about 500,000$ making them the largest social group. They would also have a steady job and be able to pay their necessities with a

People who have been hurt or humiliated often hope for an apology. Whether you are requesting an apology or considering giving one, it is important to realize that the apology techniques can help you mend a relationship while a thoughtless one may cause further conflict.

Yes, for me also this is one of the most informative class. I enjoy doing all the assignment because all of them were informative and we can use our own creativity. Putting voice recorder was little bit challenging but the option to put notes was very helpful. Overall i enjoy this class and learning many thing that is needed for my major.

It is clear that in all relationships that communication is the vital pulse that allows the continuation of said relationship, the creation of positive emotions, and the physical manifestation as productivity. A relationship, plutonic or not, is a test of our ability to relay logical thoughts and emotions as accurately as possible. The listener then may interpret and comprehend these emotions and thoughts to create a feasible compromise to any problem. However, issues arise when language is not used, misused, misunderstood, or lacks truth.

I do not remember the specific time I came in contact with computers, but if I had to take a guess it would be in my elementary school’s computer class. I did not really use computers anywhere else unless I was bored at my mom’s office and she let me play pinball or that minesweeper game. Obviously as a 1st or 2nd grader there is not any classwork that revolves around computer work such as research or typing an assignment. My computer class was not anything dramatic it was just like going to the library to read a book but instead, going on the computer to draw. All that we did in that class at the time was learn the basics like: learn how to turn on the computers, log in, save something, etc. The class was centered on us spending our time using Kidpix in order for us to just get the hang of using computers.

My project can be related to the class because it is about family. It defines what a family is and who family is for different type of people. I specifically drew upon the different types of families. The ones used in my project the nuclear family, extended family, multi-generational family, modified extended family, traditional, and non-traditional family. Many people in my family fit the labels of the different types of family. What I did is what we learned in the class the first week. What a family is. I did not go into certain cultures and values of the family because I did not ask them what their values were. My project can relate to class because it is showing that families in the United States are changing. The United States

Likewise, the way we understand and demonstrate the love may be different from your partner, Gary Chapman , couples therapist and author of "The Five Love Languages" , he says there are five general ways in which You can

It is a universal truth that we all need love in our lives. We all have different ways in which we like to receive and give love. Many of us may not even realize that we do. Gary Chapman writes about five different ways in which we love and titles them five love languages. It is important to identify how we love, because it can allow us to have a happier life and make other people’s lives better. It is especially important to identify the love languages of the children which we encounter, because it can shape their identity either for the better or worse. There are five major love languages that can be identified and can pretty much sum up the best ways we can express our love.

It is aggravating when my significant other gets mad over the simplest things, Whenever Chris and I have a chance to talk, male and female communication styles in handling fighting, criticism, and apologies cause low self-esteem to arise within me. Many women tend to take the blame for their significant others’ actions by apologizing entirely too much, but there are times when saying “I’m sorry” is not self-depreciating. Each morning Chris would always head towards a good conversation with “Good morning” and “How are you?” There would be times when he would tell jokes; sometimes he would often take his anger out on me either physically or mentally. Deborah Tannen in her essay “But What Do You Mean?” highlights key points, such as fighting and criticism between the male and female. Tannen points out throughout her text “that they [men] state their ideas in the strongest possible terms, thinking that if there are weaknesses, someone will point them out, and by trying to argue against those objections, they will see how well their ideas hold up” (156). Throughout my relationship with Chris, I learned that his actions towards me changed every time we would try to talk and work things out. I would go right into fighting and apologizing entirely too much, for his actions. While being in a relationship with Chris for over six years I started to notice his actions towards me changed from when we had first met. As his girlfriend, I needed to know what caused him to take his anger
