Romance stage

When we fall in love with somebody, itโ€™s hard for us to recognize their bad qualities. We get so caught up in the pure fascination we have for them that we fail to see anything wrong with them.

Power struggle stage

This is the stage where we stop focusing on what used to make our partners seem so perfect, and we begin to recognize only what makes them seem almost repulsive to us. Normallyย oneย ofย themย willย beย removedย whenย couplesย goย through thisย stageย inย theirย relationship. They feel betrayed because their partner has turned into a completely different person from the one they originally fell in love with.
