Answer to Question 1

Passion is the intense physiological desire for someone. Intimacy is the degree of sharing of one's thoughts and actions. Commitment is the willingness of each member of a couple to stay together through both good and bad times. Early in most relationships, passion is usually high and intimacy and commitment are lower. As passion fades, either intimacy develops or the relationship is likely to end. If the relationship continues to persist, even in the face of difficulties, commitment will develop. Generally, research finds that as the length of a relationship increases, passion and intimacy decrease but commitment gets stronger.

Every flu season is different, and even healthy people can get extremely sick from the flu, as well as spread it to others. The flu season can begin as early as October and last as late as May. Every person over six months of age should get an annual flu vaccine. The vaccine cannot cause you to get influenza, but in some seasons, may not be completely able to prevent you from acquiring influenza due to changes in causative viruses. The viruses in the flu shot are killed—there is no way they can give you the flu. Minor side effects include soreness, redness, or swelling where the shot was given. It is possible to develop a slight fever, and body aches, but these are simply signs that the body is responding to the vaccine and making itself ready to fight off the influenza virus should you come in contact with it.
