I picked The Longest Ride as my movie to show examples of Luke Collins and Sophia Danko in relationship stages because I recently watched the movie and remembered it having a good story, building up a relationship, but also having problems and breaking up. This movie does an excellent job showing the first four stages: initiating, experimenting, intensifying, and integration. On the other hand the last four stage: differentiating, circumscribing, stagnating, and terminating, was a little more challenging, in account of them experiencing a break up and then eventually getting back together quickly. One of the first scenes of the movie was an example of the first stage, initiating. After Luke Collins rode a bull for the complete eight seconds, he was chased by him. Dropping his hat next to Sophia Danko, making long eye contact. She then tried to give it back to him, but he told her to keep it. Later that night …show more content…
they ran into each other again at a bar. They starting flirting and he asked her for her number when she left to take care of her drunk friend. Shortly after meeting each other that same week, Luke called Sophia and they moved to the next step, experimenting. Luke picked up Sophia and took her to the lake for a picnic. They talked all night and had a great time opening up their windows to each other. They soon went on more dates, rode horses, and took pictures in a photo booth. From that point I knew their next step was intensifying. After falling in a pond on one of their dates, Luke invites Sophia into his house to clean up. As Sophia was changing, Luke glances at her and stares. He goes into to the room and they start to get intense as they get in the shower. They also find themselves getting intimate after Luke wins his bull riding competition. This is an example of the stage intensifying. By now they started the integrating stage. They introduce each other as boyfriend and girlfriend and when Luke gets done riding, he points to her in the crowd to let everyone know he’s hers. She is starting to become more fond of bull riding, unlike before she didn’t want to go because she is a city girl. These differences started to show and started the next stage, differentiating. Luke and Sophia started to realize their difference in the differentiating stage.
Sophia plans on moving to New York in a couple months and Luke doesn’t know how they are going to make it work. He says it’s not like he can move there, they don’t have bull riding. After realizing this, they move into the circumscribing stage. They don’t talk for a while, but Luke’s mom tells him that bull riding is eight seconds and Sophia could be for the rest of his life. As he wins competitions he realizes he doesn’t have anyone there to support him. They couple only had the stage, stagnating for a short time before he realized he needed her in his life. The couple was in the terminating stage, when earlier in the story, Sophia told Luke he needed to stop riding because of his health conditions. He didn’t listen, got mad, and broke up with her because he says that was his life. After realized that she was more important than the eight seconds on the bull, he went to the auction he knew she was at. This auction was very important to her and they made up and lived a happy
life. This movie did an excellent job at explaining the eight relationship stages, but also how relationship can go back and forth, which isn’t a bad thing. This activity helped me understand and learn more about the relationship stages as I put it in to context of my own.

Some of the internally barriers were Ashley and Luke were emotionally, verbal, and mentally destroyed. Since the mother would always say to Ashley, “Sunshine, not today, but soon”, as when they would be back together again as a family. Mainly she was messing around with their head as when she was coming back for them. The more times they seen the mother they got their hopes up as being a family again got them shot down. The mother always tried bringing gifts to show the children her love, but it wasn’t enough. She continued still to do drugs, which made the process of seeing her children impossible to be with her again. For instance, they feared they would be stuck in the foster care system for a long time.
“When Harry Met Sally” depicts the ups and downs of a relationship between and man and a woman over the course of twelve years. These ups and downs are also referred to as the ten interpersonal relationship stages. A couple’s communication throughout their relationship, both positive and negative, determine whether the relationship will be maintained or terminated. Although some couples experience every stage from the beginning to the end of their relationship, many partners, like Harry and Sally, flow back and forth between these stages and sometimes skip a stage completely, making every relationship entirely unique.
