Abstract:

To date, hurtful interactions in romantic relationships have been investigated primarily through the use of retrospective self-report data. The influence of hurtful interactions over time has yet to be studied. The current investigation is among the first to examine longitudinal data for naturally emerging descriptions of hurtful interactions within romantic relationships. Access to longitudinal data enabled the researchers to measure the long-term and short-term impact of hurtful interactions on romantic relationships. The current study extends existing research by investigating the long- and short-term influence that hurtful interactions have on relational satisfaction and commitment to marriage. Results demonstrated that hurtful messages have a significant short-term impact on relational satisfaction and commitment to marriage. Additional analyses revealed that short-term commitment to marriage was a significant predictor of long-term commitment to marriage. Ultimately our findings suggest that hurtful interactions may not be as harmful to relationships as some tend to believe.
