| CHECK IT OUT! OEFC Library News The Four Relationship Styles by Dr. Anita Knight Kuhnley Of course we love our partners--but do we love our partners well? According to attachment theory, we tend to experience and show love in predictable ways, some of which might have served us in the past but may now be undermining our relationships. So how do you know if a budding relationship is prone to struggle or success? How can you improve a long-term relationship that is stuck in a season of frustration? If you've been caught in a cycle of unsatisfying relationships, discover how attachment theory can help you take the guesswork out of understanding why people behave the way they do--especially in times of stress--so you can find and nurture a love that lasts. | |
