Document Summary
With increased degrees of commitment there is increased degrees of intimacy. Becomes important when we begin to take a look at how relationships are built. Negotiation takes place and the formulation of a relationship begins. Bargain/exchange goes on cost/benefit of thins to you (is it a risk/sure move?) Skills & tactics how to negotiate: principle of least interest who is most powerful. Central date is not the focus of encounter: don"t have to have a formal phone up process, pre-selecting of an activity is no longer necessary more spontaneous and less structured, many group dates occur. Women have become more liberal minded in terms of partnerships. Sense of commitment that matches the understood degree of intimacy. Instead of going steady , we see people may choose to live together without marrying and choosing to spend time doing this before deciding on marriage or not getting married and living common law.
