Your roommate has come to you asking for your advice with her romantic partner. Based on the research by Rusbult (1987) regarding behavior in a troubled relationship. What would you recommend if she wants her relationship to persist?
What will be an ideal response?
Answer: There are destructive/constructive and passive/active responses. The destructive behaviors harm a relationship more than constructive ones build it. So, your roommate should avoid doing destructive behaviors such as leaving, threatening to leave, or even ignoring the relationship or partner.
