I am impressed with your tenacity in getting your message out there. Just a thought to add to your 3 stages. You are talking about early relationships, people who just meet and perhaps last for 3 months or slightly longer. But there can be a honeymoon phase for 10 or even 20 years, based upon one person being the breadwinner and supplying the needs for the other person. And then something changes - loss of income, change in careers. There can also be a sort of honeymoon phase (it has been called that on occasion) after a violent incident when the perpetrator acts totally loving for awhile. Also, couples can be in the power struggle for many, many years, sometimes never growing out of it. This is why relationships can be fascinating to study. Adam,
