“Men and women can't be friends, because sex always gets in the way”, is the main theme of the movie “When Harry met Sally”. The script is a good example of the interpersonal communication ten stage model by Mark Knapp. This developmental model entails the stages of a relationship from it’s infancy to an ending. In the movie we can clearly identify all ten stages of this model.

There are over six billion people on Earth today. Each of those people has countless relationships, which extend further into an immense network of relations among thousands of individuals. These relations can be romantic, professional, unconditional, mutual, or the strongest of all, friendship. Friendship is a term used to denote co-operative and supportive behavior between two or more beings. In this sense, the term connotes a relationship which involves mutual knowledge, esteem, and affection and respect along with a degree of rendering service to friends in times of need or crisis. Friends will welcome each other's company and exhibit loyalty towards each other, often to the point of altruism.

A range of factors can impact individuals with sensory loss, such as blind or partly sighted individuals struggle to read peoples facial expressions, which are important for communication. Also not realizing someone is talking to an individual if they are walking past or stood behind them can be frustrating. Written communication can also be problematic for partly sighted individuals. Larger font may help overcome these issues. People who are hard of hearing can also become frustrated as they can’t hear day to day noises such as the doorbell, telephone ring or people talking to them directly. This may make them feel with drawn from others and lonely.

1.1 Key principles of relationship theories - Stage theories in general describe how we go through distinct stages as we develop. Thus, rather than gradually changing, we typically make sudden shifts to different plateaus of perception and behaviour.

“We cannot tell the precise moment when friendship is formed. As in filling a vessel drop by drop, that is a last drop which makes it run over; so in a series of kindness there is at last one which makes the heart run over” (Bradbury, 71)

Another theory is the Filter Model proposed by Kerchoff and Davis; they say that relationships develop through three ‘filters’. It starts with the ‘field of availables’ which are people available for a relationship where we then filter out different partners for different reasons, so it narrows down to a ‘field of desirables’ who are the people we consider as a potential partner. The first filter involves the social model where we choose people without being aware by where they live, work, have been educated or their social class. With individual characteristics not being important at this point. Then there is similarity of attitudes and values, where a partner’s beliefs and ideas come into effect. This is where communication is easier and the relationship can progress, however if beliefs and views are very different then the relationship may not move from its current position. The final filter is the emotional needs, which is whether the people fit as a couple and can meet each other’s needs.

It is often said that all good things come to an end. Relationships come and go, and some mean more than others. In fact, there was even a relationship model developed by a communication researcher by the name of Mark Knapp. In his model, he goes through what seems to be presented as a smooth step transition from each stage in which a relationship eventually evolves into. As I studied this up then down ladder model, I began to realize that I ought to build up some strong calf muscles, because my relationship sure has climbed up and down a few flights of stairs. Mark Knapp believes that relationships go through multiple stages, the uphill stages being initiation, experimenting, intensifying, integrating, bonding, then relational maintenance. On the flip side, Knapp believes the descending stages to be differentiating, circumscribing, avoiding, and eventually, termination.

According to Erikson's model, the stages prior school-age include infancy and toddlerhood. During the infancy period, a child's central process includes mutuality with

Erikson’s has eight stage, basic trust vs mistrusts a development of a sense that the world is safe, autonomy vs shame and doubt is realizing that an independent can make decision and doubt, initiative vs guilt the ability to try new things and control failure, industry vs inferiority the basic skill and work with others, identity vs identity confusion to develop sense of self, intimacy vs isolation commit in a relationship, generativity vs stagnation contribute to younger people through the process of child care, and lastly integrity vs despair view life as satisfactory and worth living. Theory is a set of ideas intended to explain development, which is why theories are important because they provide “whys” in development. There are also five

The three theories I have chosen to discuss are all extremely relevant ideas; although I prefer Erik Erikson’s stage of psychosocial development. Erik Erikson’s theory covers a person’s entire lifespan showing the many different stages throughout one’s life. A person is always

The fifth stage is called identity vs role confusion and it applies to adolescents from twelve years of age until eighteen years of age or early adulthood as society sees it (Erikson's,2016). From this point forward the child’s development relies solely on what the child does rather than what was done to the child like the first four stages (Erikson's,2016). Some consider this one of the most complicated stages/ crises because the child struggles to discover their identity and role in society and tries to balance their social relationships while attempting to fit in to the norm (Erikson's,2016). They are uncertain about their values and beliefs and do not know the direction that their life is progressing towards (Berger,2014). Some children experience role confusion and others attempt to delay the inevitable by completely withdrawing from their responsibilities (Erikson's,2016). The sixth stage is called intimacy vs isolation, and applies to young adults ages eighteen to thirty-five, please remember that this stage is built on the outcome of the identity crisis stage, in other words it’s important that the person
