Author begins by flirting, we all do it with words, a lascivious gesture, a coquettish glance or a tilt of the head. At the early stage of the argument we learnt that she believes that “we’re programmed to do it, whether by biology or culture”.

Though the possibilities for the reasons are almost endless, it depends on the situation and the people that shun others.
In Crank by Ellen Hopkins, Kristina is a character that can not avoid peer pressure, and helps one realize living above the influence is a major decision in life that can either make us or break us.

After meeting with Adam a couple of times, she starts falling deeply for him. Eventually Adam starts exposing
Talk Can We Talk Chantel Williams Com200: Interpersonal Communication Instructor: Lakisha Bryant Aug 21, 2011 About this article it’s telling marriage couples its more ways to communicate instead some couples communicate about paying the bills or who picking up the kids. That not really communication, that a boring conversation and soon or later you both going to get tired of the same conversation and leave. But you don’t want anyone to leave; you want your marriage to last till the day you die. Starting an argument to have a conversation is not a healthy way to communicate. It’s much easier to say calm thing like “How was your day at work or home.” And your partner answers in a calm way.
Communication in Happy Marriages Patrick Thompson COM200: Interpersonal Communication Instructor Debra Austin May 20th, 2012 I believe that communication is very important in not just marriages but also when you are dating. If you do not know the person that you are dating or married to then I believe that the relationship would be setting up to fail. I can say that my fiancée and I have decent conversations but I am pretty sure that there is a lot more that we could learn about each other. Due to the lack of conversation between my fiancée and me early on in our relationship, there were hardships.

After reading the article “Close relationships sometimes mask poor communication” (2011), we can notice how different we might interpret one simple sentence like “it’s getting hot in here”. I remember one day at a family gathering, my brother was talking to his girlfriend and she made the comment “I’m hot” and my brother to be funny told her “of course, that’s why I’m dating you”.

Masking Poor Communication LaTonya M. Carr COM 200 Interpersonal Communication Instructor Catherine Marciniak September 24, 2014 In the article “Close Relationships Sometimes Mask Poor Communication the researchers show that some married couples thought that they knew their other half really well, but that was not the case. They really misunderstood each other in many ways. As stated in the article “People commonly believe that they communicate better with close friends than with strangers.”(2011, January) Couples being so close to each other can lead to being overestimated on how well we communicate with one another.
