Thanks for your interest in this research.

Well, there can be drama, definitely.

But we characterize these as kind of a chronic stressor in the study that we were looking at.

We do find pretty much consistently across the research that they have lower relational quality and perhaps more volatile dynamics.

So if you look at satisfaction, they have less satisfaction.

They have more uncertainty about the relationship.

They have more conflict and they have more aggression.

So their fluctuations are probably a lot more extreme than perhaps what we would consider a traditional relationship.

At any current time, if you ask people, does your current relationship have this on-again, off-again history, about 20 to 25% will say yes.

If you ask about past relationships, a little bit more, maybe a third will say that they've had this cycling history to their relationship.

But we found across lots of different samples that maybe up to two-thirds of us have experienced at least one of these relationships in our relational history.

Yeah, it's probably all of the above.

I think we call it a chronic stressor because of the problematic interaction patterns that they have and they do report more relational stress.

So we feel like it's kind of just a constant chronic stressor

for them throughout their relational trajectory.

So in this particular study, we were interested in kind of linking the number of cycles that they've had, how much relational stress they have, and then how that was related to their mental health outcomes, as well as some physical outcomes.

So we're kind of just looking at, do you have sleeping problems or do you have more headaches?

So we looked at how that was all linked together.

Really great question.

And we've only tapped into a little bit of it.
