Relationship: My Relationships

One warm summer morning my sister, dad, and I were sitting and watching T.V. and my best friend’s dad called and invited us over for the weekend. He said

It all started off with my family and I going to Mexico. We were going on a vacation. I was pretty excited to see my cousin. He was a really funny guy, especially because the way he tells his jokes. When we got to my godfather’s house, it was huge. It had 2 stories, 5 bathrooms, 5 bedrooms, a garage, and a big patio. I realized that staying at his house was going to be the best . So my cousin, brother, and I we all ate when we arrived. After we ate we went outside to play soccer, as we were going outside I noticed he had and ATV. He said we could use it later. After soccer we went inside to shower, because we were gonna go to the mall.

The world around us is immense. It is filled with extraordinary individuals, places and experiences. The bonds we form are ceaseless. Every relationship that is formed is one that we would like to experience over and over. Relationships in the world vary from one individual to another but, it is a solid connection that we as a people want to shape in our lives. The different connections that are formed, shape our identity and the identity of who we will become in the coming future. A relationship is a way in which two or more objects, people or concepts are connected. To me a relationship can mean many things but one way that I believe every relationship has is beauty. A way where objects, concepts and people can connect is beautiful because it Is new.

Relationship satisfaction is an important part of romantic relationships. A lack of satisfaction can lead to consequences in other areas of life and eventually, the destruction of the relationship. For example, job performance is heavily influenced by romantic relationship satisfaction. In a study by Greenhaus and Beutell (1985), they argued that poor satisfaction leads to poor job performance and vice versa. They stated this was to because these two spheres are “interdependent.” Satisfaction can also influence quality of health. Conflict in a marital relationship is associated with higher heart rates and blood pressure (Broadwell & Light, 1999; Ewart, Taylor, Kaemer & Agras, 1991; Flor, Breitenstein, Birbaumer & Furst 1995; Frankish & Linden, 1996; Kiecolt-Glaser, 1993; Mayne, O’Leary, McCrady, Contrada & Labouvie, 1997; Morell & Apple, 1990; Shwartz, Slater & Birchler, 1994; Thomsen & Gilbert, 1998). It is also strongly associated with depression and depressed syndromes (Beach, Fincham & Katz, 1998; Fincham & Beach, 1999). This relationship between marital conflict and depression seems to be bidirectional meaning depression is not only a result of conflict but also is caused by the conflict (Beach, et. al., 1998; Fincham & Beach, 1999). Because a lack of relationship satisfaction can negatively affect so many important areas of life, it is important to understand what influences the level of satisfaction held in romantic relationships.

In 2011 on a very cold December night, my dad told me something that I will never forget. My siblings and I were all sitting in my fathers very out dated apartment, eating hamburger helper and watching a movie on his small 32 inch t.v.

We were in the car on our way to the Baseball game. It was pretty hot outside, 90 degrees or so. We were going 60 miles an hour down I-55. Dad and I hadn’t really talked until Litchfield, but when traffic completely stopped, we had nothing to do but talk. “So what did you do this week?”Dad asked. Of course it was the summer, so I hadn’t done anything in the past week, so I just

Another person in my life that I really trust and that I know that won't hurt me. It is my mom because I know she will try to give me that best in life. She and I always will know how to cheer each other up through the hard time. When I was younger, I loved it when she read stories for me and always put me first. My mom is strong, confident, and kind to others not matter what. She treats everyone with respect and that why I love her.

The closest relationship I have currently would be with my parents. Even though I made the conscious decision to move out of state for college seven years ago, they are my biggest supporters. I have never gone more than a week without talking to one of them and discussing what has happened in my life. When I was younger, they helped me with bills

I felt identified with your statement concerning “relationship closeness” in “the advantages and disadvantages of your network” section since I lack connectivity with people related to my sector (business). I believe that a network oriented to our objectives and goals can help us in several points such as in providing professional support (they can support us with doubts or problems in our work, help us to improve it or to find it in case we do not have it currently), connectivity (the contacts we have serve as a bridge for other contacts) and transformation (nobody never knows where will finish professionally or with whom. More contacts ensure better relationships in the future. Relationships change and we do not know what position

I understand and hold myself accountable for what I said. I feel bad and apologized. I may be reading things wrong but you give off an impression that you were totally in the right. If that’s how you truly feel than I really think that will become a serious problem in or relationship that we need to deal with sooner rather than later.

Sex- Sexuality is a natural, normal, healthy part of life. However, with sex comes great responsibility. What you see in movies, on television shows, and what you hear from those around you is not always an accurate portrayal of reality. Before you decide to have sex, it is important to know yourself, your body, what you want out of life, and the consequences that may come as a result.

Having my dad around all the time wasn’t my everyday routine. I’d see him once or twice a week so I wasn’t very much used to see him every day. One day I came home after school and he and my mom were on the balcony talking, the notice I was staring, they both looked at me and called for a family meeting by the tone of their voices I could tell there was

There has been some recent argument against the current understanding of the place of relationships in psychotherapy. While most theories argue that relationships are important or even essential to good mental health, other theorists claim that the way relationships are conceptualized in these theories is insufficient (Slife & Wiggins, 2009). Most of these theories conceptualize the individuals first, and then talk about the way these individuals relate. Relationships are often understood as two or more independent self-contained individuals interacting (Slife & Wiggins, 2009). An alternative way to look at relationships is offered by relational psychoanalysts and other theorists, though again it should be noted that

In this world, to live a life, everybody needs someone to always be there by their side. It is not possible to stay alone and be happy at the same time. We can lower our pain by sharing it, or increase our happiness if we can share our happiness with others. People stand with us, share our feelings, bond with us and become a part of our life. We can’t imagine the life without the people who matter the most to us. Some we meet with the needs, some meet with destiny and some stays from the very first day of our life. These connections and commitment of being there make relationships. There is different steps, ways and views of every relation. Trust, love and respect are three different ways to show the importance of our relationship.

The love from my family and friends are life’s greatest blessings as each relationship has molded me into the person that I am today. My relationships with my mother, father, Nanna, and my friends Addy and Kirsten are all ones that are meaningful to my life. By focusing on keeping these relationships strong, I, in turn, am rewarded with dependable relationships that I can rely on. To continue the longevity and stability with the following five people that have strongly impacted my life, I must continue to use specific relational maintenance strategies such as rituals and relational currencies.
