Hows your love life? Are you and your partner satisfied, playing roles you both enjoy and getting your needs met? Imagine having a quick, objective tool to help you re-balance a current relationship or find a new one.
Whether you are searching for love, content in a relationship, or feeling burned — this application is for you. Three assessments allow you to pin-point key roles, issues, and opportunities for greater satisfaction. Gift ideas, pick-up tips, and key words to build rapport are just a tap away. You can also explore in-depth to create the kind of relationship you dream about.
You can use this application by yourself, with a supportive friend, or with your romantic partner. You will find yourself better able to discuss issues in a friendly way, even with partners who are normally adverse to "talking about the relationship." The assessments give rich results for both you and your partner, honoring each persons perspectives and contributions.
IN DEPTH:
Relationships involve two people and are about more than feelings or issues. You play various roles with a partner. There are many roles such as Provider, Courtesan, Romancer, Compatriot, Mentor and so forth. When you know which roles you prefer and which are in play, you get a much better idea of what to do in order to bring harmony to your relationship.
Knowing the roles you play is just part of the picture. You have needs: security, action, intimacy, and creativity. When needs arent met, problems occur. Fortunately, couples can take on roles in order to meet their needs.
This application draws upon the wisdom of couples counselors and the frameworks they use to understand and leverage relationships. There is no reason to rely on a magazine quiz or horoscope when you can use professional tools. Thus, when you learn about the Love-Life Types, you learn what occurs "under the hood", how people relate back-and-forth. You will learn how to create and sustain love.
This application is ideal for serious students of relationship psychology. Improving a relationship requires willingness to learn, play, and work. Although assessments will provide insight, the real meat is the applications Advice feature that lays out a five-step growth and repair process. Whenever you encounter an issue, you can refer to the Advice section to gain insight and learn actions you can take. With curiosity and patience for discovery, you can become "a beautiful couple".
EXPERTISE:
