So it's not like trying new things is terrible wisdom for someone who's an anxious avoidant attachment style.

So how can like a lay person kind of maximize their intimate experiences with their partner based on your research?

Should they take a quiz and find out what their attachment style is?

And then what sort of activity should they do?

And it sounds like there's hope for couples who have different attachment styles, like mommy.

How much of a sort of boost to relationship satisfaction, if you tailor your activities in this way, will one observe?

OK, we got to have a little fun with this one.

What activities would you recommend for someone who's avoidant and what activities would you recommend for someone who's anxious?

Amy, this interview has been great because I've been taking notes and you're helping me, but I also think your study is super helpful and informational and interesting.

Now, what if couples don't do that?

What if they don't engage in these kinds of activities and their attachment styles aren't aligned or they aren't doing activities that would sort of give them relationship satisfaction based on their attachment style?

What's the downside of not doing these things you're saying?

Amy Mews is a psychology professor at York University where she's also the director of the Sexual Health and Relationship Lab.

Amy, this has been a joy.

Thank you so much for sharing your research with me.
