Answer to Question 1

Hatfield found that when couples are in relationships consumed by romantic infatuation, both partners become completely absorbed with each other and exclude friends and family. Family, friends, academics, sports, work, and anything else that was once important lose their priority in life (Sureshkumar, 2004). Because of the exclusive nature of the relationship, family and friends may disapprove of the relationship because they are neglected and ignored by the couple.

Answer to Question 2

Parents blocking health curricula that discuss homosexuality in public schools and demanding that kindergarten teachers stop using books that contain pictures of same-sex parents are examples of homophobia. Additionally, lesbian and gay students ages 13 to 17 being twice as likely as their straight peers to be assaulted, harassed, shoved, or kicked at school is another example of homophobia.
