security in relationships  

Definición

  • From mothers to mentors, friends to lovers, people have a fundamental need to believe that their significant others will be responsive in times of need. According to John Bowlby, the father of Attachment Theory, the result of this belief, when fulfilled, is a sense of security—a feeling that the world is generally a safe place and that one can find support in difficult times.
