5 common causes of conflict in relationships

Conflicts are part of every relationship, the only question is how to deal with them - the Reiss Motivation Profile® is a valuable support in disputes.

In every relationship, there are arguments from time to time. That's perfectly normal and no reason to directly question everything. What is noticeable, however, is that discussions always concern the same points. Five very frequently mentioned reasons for quarrels in relationships include:

  • Household and order
  • Financial issues
  • Leisure activities
  • Criticism of the partner and how to deal with it
  • Vacation planning

If order lovers and chaos queens meet, conflict is just as inevitable as when spendthrifts and miserly people live together or when the calm in person and the adrenaline junkie plan a vacation. The questions behind all problems are of a fundamental nature: What is important for the individual and what is not. What does he or she need to be happy and content. Why does one rule in certain situations. These questions once also troubled the American psychologist Steven Reiss, and he set out to find answers. The result of his years of research is the scientifically based Reiss Motivation Profile®. This shows 16 psychological needs that everyone has within themselves, the so-called life motives. These must be satisfied in order for people to feel that their lives and actions are meaningful.



The Reiss Motivation Profile® helps, especially in relationships, to better understand the other person and gives an overview of what is important to them. For example, there are people who have a strong sense of order and structure. In the household, it is important to them that everything has its place and is tidy. Likewise, these people find it difficult to be spontaneous and attach great importance to good planning. Order is an essential basic need for them. On the other hand, there are also people who are very flexible. They feel especially comfortable when not everything is planned. Moreover, they like to improvise and a messy household doesn't bother them or they don't even notice it. The two opposing directions of needs are often fuel for the relationship. The Reiss Motivation Profile® clarifies at this point and helps to find compromises to make relationships more harmonious again. It allows for a different perspective and those who can put themselves in their partner's shoes are often more tolerant and understanding when it comes to pitfalls that individuality and personality hold.

Our relationship had seen better days. We were basically not as close as we used to be and I wondered if that was what relationships do - they change and you have to come to terms with it. But then I came across the Reiss Motivation Profile. It's a test that tells you what really motivates you - and I discovered something new about myself. I realized I needed much more than just the daily routines in our partnership. I needed variety and new experiences. So I shared my findings with my partner and we decided to try something new together. And now it feels like we have rediscovered our relationship! We are closer than ever and look forward to all the exciting things to come!

I had been with my partner for over ten years, but lately it felt like I barely knew him anymore. We had grown apart and our relationship seemed to be just a memory of better times. I felt like I had tried everything to get our relationship back on track, but nothing seemed to work. The profile helped me figure out what really motivated me and what was missing in my relationship. After I took the test and discussed the results with my partner. We both understood each other better and were able to support each other better.

I recently did the Reiss Motivation Profile and it was totally eye-opening. I've always gotten along well with my partner, but now it's like we're meeting on a whole new level. We can now talk about our deepest wants and desires. By understanding our motives, our relationship has reached a whole new level. I am so grateful for this tool and I know it will help us in the future.
