boredom in relationships  

Définition(s)

  • Relationship boredom refers to a specific type of relationship challenge in which one or both members of a couple feel that the relationship or the partner has become uninteresting, unexciting, and lost all feeling or “spark.” Unlike traditional obstacles in relationships (such as arguments, betrayal, and so on) that focus on the presence of negative emotions and negative relationship processes, relational boredom is best thought of as an absence of both positive and negative affect and an absence of motivation. Although all interpersonal relationships are susceptible to habituation or boredom, it is likely to be most perilous for romantic and marital relationships.
