COMMUNICATIVE APPROACHES

por Caty Primo

Acting on a plan (Negotiation): In this scenario, you and your partner watch a movie and eat dinner afterwards. During dinner, you partner seemed somewhat distant and upset, most likely from you refusing to go to his house. The bill for this outing was quite high as you both went to a expensive restaurant. Otherwise, you had a good time and learned much more about your partners interests and personality.

Learning from your plan: In this scenario, you and your partner both had a fun night. You learned you could negotiate with your partner on plans that you did not want to do and find a common ground where you'd both like the outcome. This communication skill can be helpful if you find yourself in a situation that requires some action without an argument or disagreement. In the future, this skill can be helpful when you are able to find a mutual understanding for one and other and find an option that works for you and your partner.

Identify the problem: It is implied that the partner wants to have sexual intercourse even though you haven't spent much time with him. You know this and aren't sure if you want to. You and your partner are implied to be relatively young as your partner lives with his parents. You have never spent a lot of time alone with your partner, but now you’ve been invited over on Friday because you partner’s parents are going away for the night.

Aggressive Refusal: Say "No way!" and start arguing with him until you break up with him.
