How well do you know your partner’s inner psychological world, his or her history, worries, stresses, joys, and hopes?
The antidote for contempt, this level focuses on the amount of affection and respect within a relationship. (To strengthen fondness and admiration, express appreciation and respect.)
State your needs, be aware of bids for connection and turn towards them. The small moments of everyday life are actually the building blocks of relationship.
The presence of a positive approach to problem-solving and the success of repair attempts.
We say “manage” conflict rather than “resolve” conflict, because relationship conflict is natural and has functional, positive aspects. Understand that there is a critical difference in handling perpetual problems and solvable problems.
Create an atmosphere that encourages each person to talk honestly about his or her hopes, values, convictions and aspirations.
Understand important visions, narratives, myths, and metaphors about your relationship.
