In 1986, I had developed a set of measures for assessing commitment in romantic relationships, dividing the world—as had the sociologist Michael Johnson 6 before me—into the broad themes of dedication and constraint.

The single most important factor in a child’s healthy development is the stable relationship of the parents. I came to view commitment between two partners as the condition where a strong sense of “us with a future” has emerged. Harold Kelley and John Thibaut described how two partners who were growing in interdependence would move from having only individual goals to developing a view of the future based on joint outcomes. The first four lesson plans are designed for use with Year 8 or equivalent and the latter four lesson plans are designed for use with Year 9 or equivalent groups.

Ken Hanke of the Mountain Xpress described the technical aspects of the film as "competent", but action locations as "blandest, least interesting settings imaginable". As he reminisces about his old high school girlfriend (Kathryn Worsham), he regrets he ever broke up with her.

I understand you will use my personal data to improve services and send me marketing communications. Although that line is preeminently describing the physical union, the passage resonates deeply with so many because of the implication of a deeper bond. Both of these ancient thoughts hover around the nature of individuality and oneness, but the nuances and traditions around them are different in how they relate to views of mating, love, and marriage. Whereas stability is the norm if parents are married (75% stay together), it is the exception if they are not (30% stay together).Here, I describe how this notion arises in my field of the study of commitment in intimate relationships.
