- Abstract
Living as a couple involves learning to connect with one another. However, sometimes the fact of living and being a couple is mistaken with being "identical". This can lead to the belief that the two of them must live as a couple, think, say, feel and act the same. The main objective of this article is to describe those aspects that constitute the dark side of a couple's life cycle, and through this, suggest a proactive strategy to counteract "negative detachment". Six couples residing in Mexico City were interviewed and data were analyzed under a phenomenological approach. The obtained results allow the explanation of the dark side of a couple's life cycle and at the same time, recreate an attachment-detachment cycle. Suggestions for couple's to take action towards learning about their attachments and negative detachments are given, on thenway to improve their life quality commitment in the long term.
