Talk:Knapp's relational development model

Untitled
Knapp's model doesn't presuppose that the relationship must come apart and terminate. It prescribes the method of coming apart and terminating - but Knapp's model allows for the partnership to maintain indefinitley at any level. Whoever wrote the bulk of this article misunderstood Knapp's intention - or I did. I am not qualified nor do I have time to rewrite these portions of the article - but wanted to record my thoughts on the subject for when I come back to it, or maybe to call attention to this perceived error and get some discussion going.

Dissolution of a relationship

 * 1) Differentiation - partners dislike their differences
 * 2) Circumscribing - lower quantity and quality of communications between the partners
 * 3) Stagnating - no relationship growth, minimal communication between the partners
 * 4) Avoiding - physical and emotional barriers are actualized between the partners.
