Question # 2

I have no doubt that the pragmatic perspective has a certain degree of validity. About how a relationship with another individual is sort a game. Anyone that has ever been in a romantic relationship could concur with this fact. An example could be you and your significant other got into a fight. It could be about a big thing or a small thing, but it really doesn’t matter. They get angry and you get angry, it’s an endless cycle. Each party is waiting for the other to cave and admit fault. So I do agree this perspective to a certain extent. The problem with this perspective it doesn’t take feelings and certain cultures into account. But for the most part I do feel that communication with other could be considered a game. But this perspective does have things different than a game. A game has a winner. But in life there doesn’t always have to be a winner. Sometimes just losers.
