Over the last few episodes, I’ve shared a view of how relationships evolve through a set of relationship states, passing through what we’ve termed a relationship “life-cycle”. We’ve noted that each of our relationships has one or more relationship goals at each point of its life-cycle--- goals such as friendship, or romantic connection, or emotional connection. We’ve seen that relationships play out through the course of interactions between partners.
In this episode, I’d like to describe the Two Open Doors Relationship Game, which I’ve developed based on all of the preceding observations about how relationships work. I believe that the Game is a useful tool for exploring relationships, both in a personal-development setting, and perhaps in a therapeutic setting.
