| What factors actually determine how some
relationships are strengthened and sustained, even during profound crises,
while others crumble and dissolve? This workshop will take a serious
look into the meaning and importance of lovemaps for establishing and
especially maintaining long-term love relationships. The Enneagram
will be used to determine what elements are relevant, or perhaps vitally
necessary, for a romantic relationship to thrive. What explains our
profound attraction to one person and not another? What triggers or
restricts our trust, excitement, empathy, and desire to know another
person? Case studies will be presented in order to demonstrate the
personality dynamics and differences that either deepen or diminish
the quality of our sexual and romantic interests.
