For example, to the extent that the marriage is defined by contempt and stonewalling, that is bad news, as marriages often do not recover from high levels of contempt between the spouses.
On the other hand, if the relationship has high levels of criticism and defensiveness, but relatively low levels of stone walling and contempt, that marriage can usually be advanced and evolved.
