What will be an ideal response?
- Connection-Autonomy: Relationships require both the desire to connect to another person and the desire to retain autonomy as an individual.
- Openness-Closedness: The second dialectic tension is the desire to be open and expressive on the one hand and closed and private on the other.
- Novelty-Predictability: To develop and build healthy relationships, a certain amount of predictability is needed. Without some stability or constancy, the potential for uncertainty and ambivalence is too great for a long-term relationship to survive. Therefore, we need relationships that accommodate a certain amount of predictability.
