Does your couple fall into the category of stronghold couples? Professor Jean Kellerhals explains the distinctive signs of this couple that is often difficult to reach.
Couples can be categorized based on their behavior in relation to their environment. On the one hand, there are couples who are particularly open like sociable couples. On the other hand, there are couples who like to lock themselves in a bubble as is the case with the cocoon couple or the bastion couple. In the case of the bastion couple, Professor Jean Kellerhals, from the University of Lausanne, explains that this type of relationship sees the outside world with a very bad eye. Everything external is a threat to him.
Yet inside, the relationship is particularly comfortable, but very square. A stronghold couple avoids conflict and tension at all costs. The spirit of conciliation is very present and is a specific sign of this type of couple, explains the professor. However, if the disagreement is almost zero in the couple, the organization of the roles is very square. Generally, this couple is based on a conservative conception of the role of man and woman in a relationship. The man is the one in charge of providing for the needs of the family and the woman takes care of the constraints related to the family home.
Routine can be a deadly evil
Professor Jean Kellerhals nevertheless puts beware this type of couple. Indeed, just like cocoon couples, it is subject to routine. After all, given the couple’s meticulous organization, there will be little room for the unexpected and surprises. Monotony is therefore the first adversary of the stronghold couple. This specialist advisesfrom time to time blow a new wind within the couple so that it can last.
