Love Thinks! How Not to Marry a Jerk/Jerkette
Calling all singles, divorced, or widowers!!
Want to be in a healthy relationship?
Join us to learn how to pick the right person and BE the right person!
CONTENT: The goals of the How to Avoid Falling for a Jerk/Jerkette program are two fold: first, to teach singles and singles-again the key areas to get to know about a prospective partner that are predictive of what they will be like in a marital relationship. Secondly, to teach singles and singles-again how to pace a growing relationship in such a way as to avoid becoming over-attached and subsequently overlooking key problem areas in the developing relationship.
The five bonding areas that singles must pace are conceptualized in the Relationship Attachment Model (RAM). This model illustrates how these key bonding dynamics (knowledge, trust, reliance, commitment and touch) can become out of balance and lead to vulnerabilities in a relationship.
Overall, this program aims at empowering singles with the tools necessary to be more deliberate in their romantic relationships as well as equip them with a plan as to how to develop their relationship in a healthy way.
