The way relationships are defined and lived today is changing from one minute to the next. In the past, relationships followed rules set out by culture and society, but today those rules are rapidly vanishing. This leaves couples in the position of writing their own rules but using skills learned from witnessing behaviors of past generations. Is it any wonder it can be so confusing and difficult?
Do you live together before you get married? Do you get married at all? How is the power structure of the relationship defined? If you have a blended family, what is the role of the step-parent figure? If you have a dual career relationship, what happens when one partner’s job change affects the other? If you decide to have children, when will you have them and how will they be raised? If one partner is caring for an elderly relative, how will that be handled between the couple?
