Communicating in Relationship
Another early morning trip to school to attend my module of Understanding Relationship again. Well today's session was more interactive and the movie "Before Sunrise" continued a little further.
So, we were taught how to understand people's facial expression such as being angry, sad, shocked, happy, disgusted and more. And a shocking fact by the lecturer was that ... a human face can form up to about 7000++ facial emotions. I was like, how in the world do those people come up with the numbers? Science has a very interesting yet weird way to determine experiments. Well, more important, it's very true that facial expression are the first few impressions that people will look at and determine whether they will make friends with you or not. And facial expressions are very super important during relationships as it is one of the non-verbal communication shared among couples, most of the time. Like some women would say: "My boyfriend or husband is having a mood swing, even if he doesn't tell it to me." Well, ladies are mostly sensitive to their partners facial expressions and body language. That's how they tell if you are sincere about what you are doing or saying to them.
Well, after which, we were taught of attachment styles. 6 major attachment styles are listed below:
1) EROS - erotic (the romantic sort)
2) LUDUS - playful (what I term as playboy/ girl)
3) STORGE - friendship (relationship grow from being friends)
4) PRAGMA - practical (down to earth and super practical about life sort)
5) MANIA - dramatic (drama-mama sort)
6) AGAPE - unconditional (what I term self-sacrificing)
Well, for me, I am both STORGE and AGAPE. This is based on the test that the lecturer handed out. So if anyone wants to try, let me know, I'll try to send it to you. But it's interesting as it really tells what type of partner you'll be like towards your love one.
Other than these, the lecturer mentioned about another 3 major types of relationship attachment, such as:
1) Secure - whereby the person finding it relatively easy to get close to others and not being worried about being abandon or people getting too close to him or her.
2) Avoidant/ Dismissing - whereby the person finds it difficult to get close to others and not being about to trust people completely. And gets nervous when people try to get close.
3) Anxious/ Ambivalent - whereby the person faces the difficulty of others being reluctant to get close to the person as he or she desires. And gets worried most of the time thinking whether the partner love him or her a not.
Well, for this, I am obviously an Avoidant/ Dismissing in nature. So what about you?
Well, that's mostly the bulk of today's lesson and the moral of the story for today: "The best way to communicating in a relationship is BELIEVABILITY". If you have read my other post on the 9th of Oct on Impressions and 12th of Oct on Wants and Needs. I had written about believing in each other in a relationship. Even the Father said so. So it's really no surprise that in a relationship, believing in your partner is the utmost importance.
So friends, one word: BELIEVE.
