Relationship dynamics, aka how we chose our partners

Whether we connect in the virtual world or face to face, our entire lives are defined by the relationship we seek and keep. This workshop give a glimpse into how we develop our partner-choosing preferences and the influence of our parents have in the matter, namely what their relationship was like towards each other and towards us as we were growing up.
