“Go easy and cold” is not only a mantra to solve life problems, but also for nurturing relationships. Relationships have their own share of ups and falls, but a little humor, inside the jokes- the feeling of playfulness can make everything comfortable.
A study published in scientific reports studies how this carefree playability affects the style of commitment and jealousy. These are two determining relationship factors that can do or break its move.
Understanding the style of commitment and jealousy
Attachment styles denote how one connects and forms closeness in a relationship. Researchers characterize this as an internal regime or the basis that forms as people become close to their partners. On the other hand, jealousy is how it reacts when it feels that their relationship can threaten, how to worry that someone can come between them and their partner. Jealousy is to feel upset and suspicious when relationships are considered a risk.
These two factors are important for relationships. According to research, playfulness affects them.
As playfulness affects
Playfulness-it’s all about taking life quietly, fun and easy. The study smashed playfulness into 4 types:
- Another directed playfulness: It focuses on very fun and laughter to ease any unpleasant situation, share inside jokes or make stupid faces.
- Intellectual playfulness: It’s about being figurative and curious, participating in playful thinking together. A person with this type of playfulness is engaged in creative thinking.
- Capricious playfulness: This playfulness is intricate, eccentric and unconventional- as well as strange together- socks are unwilling, twinning in non-traditional costumes, improvised karaoke sessions and so on.
- Easy playfulness: This type of playfulness is to stay cool, relaxed rather than emphasize anything, for example, when the food burned, people with this type of playfulness offer pizza instead. They don’t do anything.
Playfulness and type of commitment
The study found that people with higher levels of other directed, lightweight and intellectual playfulness tend to have safer affiliation styles. The playfulness helps them feel more confident in the stability of their relationship. However, intricate playfulness may not always be so safe with fear that they do not do enough, or their intricate humor may not be fully understood by their partner, which makes them disturb.
