%PREOCCUPATION ISSUE CONTROL EXCLUSIVE RELATIONSHIP 981126                       
                                                                                                                               
     People  who  are  preoccupied with issues  of control                                                           
often  feel  that  their being   involved   in an intimate                     
relationship  gives  them the  right  to control  whomever       
they  have  been  intimate  with;    e.g.,    that  "true"                     
intimacy  should be exclusive intimacy,  so  openness  and                     
honesty  with others should be excluded.  Such people  are                       
not   dedicated to  helping people be true  to  themselves    
and  each  other  in open  and  honest  relationships  ---                                                              
they  are  dedicated  to being preoccupied with issues  of                                                             
control.   Because they are preoccupied   with  issues  of                          
control     they    give   little   attention    to    the                                                           
prerequisites  for personal and communal integrity ---  as                                                                
mutually  supportive realities which cannot  be  separated                            
from each other.  Controllers engender disintegration.
