One of the most influential models of relationship development was proposed by psychologist, George Levinger. • According to the model, the natural development of a relationship follows five stages:
1) Acquaintance – • Becoming acquainted depends on previous relationships, physical proximity, first impressions, and a variety of other factors. • If two people begin to like each other, continued interactions may lead to the next stage, but acquaintance can continue indefinitely.
2) Buildup – • During this stage, people begin to trust and care about each other. 3) Continuation – • This stage follows a mutual commitment to a long term friendship, romantic relationship, or marriage. • It is generally a long, relative stable period.
4) Deterioration - • Not all relationships deteriorate, but those that do tend to show signs of trouble. • Loss of trust and betrayals may take place as the downward spiral continues.
5) Termination – • The final stage marks the end of the relationship, either by death in the case of a healthy relationship, or by separation.
