Couples Types
What is your couple type?
Step by step, you create your life with your loved partner. Although every relationship is unique, all fit one of the main types: Nest, Castle, Partner, Association, and Side by Side.
These five conjugal styles which you are going to discover in this website were defined by a team of sociologists at the University of Geneva, Switzerland. They result from a study of 1,500 married and unmarried couples of any age, living together for at least a year. The first conclusions of the study showed that never has the landscape of relationships been so varied; never spouses had such freedom of creation!:
From this diversity, we can extract five trends. One of these trends describes your relationship. The others may remind you of your friends, your parents, or your neighbors.

How can we define the different types?
Four dimensions are used to calibrate the different types:
