I've done some research this morning and printed a number of articles from online. Once my outdoor work is done, I plan to settle in to read the things I've printed.

If anyone is interested, I found some good things at these places:

*www.jamesjmessina.com [articles on improving relationships (flowmom actually recommended an article from here, and there are several others that are interesting, too)]

*Games in relationships--games people play by Eric Berne at www.relationships-explained.com [info on the psychological games people play with each other in relationships (e.g., persecutor, rescuer, victim)] PLEASE NOTE: The top of this page has suggestive/explicit pictures. Now you can say I warned you.

Hope these are helpful for anyone interested in these topics!
