Making Relationships Work
How To Stay Together, Resolve
Conflict & Be Happy!
This presentation will begin momentarily
-Dr. Alduan Tartt
Contributing Psychologist On:
What Great Couples Do Well

1) Remain Friends
2) Resolve Conflict Well
The Marital Mindset

Marriage is not about getting your needs met… it’s
about meeting your partners!
The Expectations Trap
“I deserve better than I’m getting”
“This isn’t what I signed up for”
“I’m putting more into this than I’m getting out”
Normal Development of Marriages
Infatuation (6months - 2 years)
- Giddy Love
- Similar feeling to getting “high”
- Common in people with high pain bodies (pain attracts)
Post Rapture
- Intense feelings begin to fade
- Reality sets in
- Can feel like “falling out of love”
- Love becomes an intentional act not a “feeling”
-From “Me To We To Interdependence” (Bader/Pearson Marital Stages of Change)
Normal Development of Marriages
Discovery
-Love no longer sustains marriage, the decision to honor
the commitment sustains the love
- Discover what makes your partner feel loved
- Become an expert on your partners likes & dislikes
Connection
- Strong friendship develops
- Solidified common interests & philosophy on life
- Create & maintain rituals that unify the couple (like a team)
-From “Me To We To Interdependence” (Bader/Pearson Marital Stages of Change)
Your Relationship Is Not That Bad

Couples just don’t start arguing all of a sudden.
Instead, they stop paying attention to one another
and disconnect and argue as a result
Your Relationship Is Not That Bad

You are one connection experience away from
solving your issues and feeling great about your
relationship or marriage again
