This page is a continuation of the Relationship Behavior Index (3 of 3), which is aimed at providing a self help guide to couples with behavioral conflict.
- Respect
Mutual respect within a relationship is the key to ensuring the couple can not only over come most behavioural conflicts, but also to reduce the temptations that may inevitably lead to infidelity. One of the biggest categories for which divorce has been granted over the past few years is the Unreasonable Behaviour of a partner, which could also be indicatory of a rise in lack of mutual respect within relationships. It is therefore vital to the success of a relationship to know how to command respect.
- Self Oriented Perfectionist
Self Oriented Perfectionist people can often be hard to live with, as they tend to set their expectations of themselves and others far too high. Although living with a perfectionist can seem difficult for certain people for others they make the perfect partner. In order to sustain a successful relationship with a Perfectionist partner, it first becomes necessary to understand their behaviour and how to manage them.
- Socially Perfectionist
Those who are Socially Perfectionist believe that perfection is demanded of them, which is often adapted in response to a partner's Other-oriented Perfectionist behaviour (i.e. people who demand perfection of others). Unfortunately though the Socially Perfectionist people often feel that they fail to meet the expectations placed on them by others, which inevitably makes them feel helpless and this then eventually leads to a feeling of hopelessness.
- Suicide
Suicide is becoming one of the biggest killers in the civilized world, and as a preventive measure it is important to first appreciate what is the most common reasons why a person would resort to such a drastic action. Research has shown that people who commit suicide often do so because of feelings of isolation and loneliness, therefore it is vital for people in these circumstances to seek help from a qualified counselor or the Samaritans before the despair wins over.
- Solitude
The need for personal space is often under-estimated and neglected by most people. This personal space is an instinctive desire to find peace and quiet through Solitude. However, this desire could potentially lead to marital conflicts, as a person may feel suffocated by the relationship. Therefore it becomes necessary to find the right balance between solitude and the conjunctive time spent with a partner.

PEYMA's Relationship Questionnaire is desinged to provide Relationship Counseling without a need to attend any counseling sessions. This approach is able to provide an insight into the root cause of a behavioural conflict, as well as, how to behave in order to be more compatible.
Signs of Infidelity can help expose a relationship betrayal before it gets too involved, therefore improving the chances of recovery. Identifying these signs correctly is vital as any misjudgement can in itself lead to marital disputes and feelings of mistrust.
Recovering from infidelity is not going to be easy, but an experienced therapist can help with overcoming this affliction. It is important to recognise that a person will never forget what has taken place, but it is possible to rebuild the trust and move on.
