Characteristics of Interpersonal Relationship

This type of communication involves two people and this occur in our daily life we just gotta TALK!! lolx.. and I personally prefer interpersonal communication than intrapersonal communication.

Well since last tuesday Sean is not here he's in holidays to Thailand.. I noticed that this has affected me and andrew especially.

Firstly, how he affected me and andrew is that we felt like we have lost a BEST FRIEND that we can talk to cause we cant Message him!! both of us could only talk to Sean cause we trust him and for me mostly because Sean is the only person whom i usually go out with.. and since he is on holiday, the situation now is that its quiet without him..and with this i would like to say that through shared activities it help us to developed feelings,appreciation,and mutual liking.This is one of the example of Relational Messages-a statement about how the parties feel towards one another.

Besides that, when we have problems usually both of us will have a metacommunication on the misunderstanding and problems we had.. which sean goes blur everytime~~~ but then it reinforce our relationship and solve our problems which is a GOOD thing~~ ^^

Next, SELF-DISCLOSURE!!

Using the appropriate Self Disclosure guidelines.. You wont go wrong or putting yourself into risk instead it will help the other person understand you better but then still better go through first before you express your feelings to the other person.. consider this question..

1) Is the other person important to you?

2) Is the risk of disclosing reasonable?

3) Are the amount and type of disclosure appropriate?

4) Is the disclosure relevant to the situation at hand?

5) Is the disclosure reciprocated?

6) Will the effect be constructive?

7) Is the Self-disclosure clear and understandable??

Haha~~ Be wise when you want to tell others your dirty little secret.. and this is for you ANDREW!!! hahahahahahaha =P
