The 4 horsepersons of the relational apocalyse are central to John Gottman's findings, as too what he calls reciprocity of negative affect(emotion) and a low incidence of positive relative to negative events in a couple's interactions. So dont reciprocate bad feelings and work on getting some more positives into your relationship
That 5:1 positive to negative interaction ratio certainly gives you something concrete to pause for thought on doesnt it? I suspect thats it's all to easy for relationships to get locked into a negative feedback loop of sorts!
