This book proposes that romantic relationships-filtered through
various socio-cultural sieves-can lead to the development of
affective kin bonds, which underlie our sense of personhood and
belonging. Sirisena argues that the process resembles an attempt to
make strangers into kin, and that sort of affective relating is a
form of self-conscious relationality, in which the inhabitants
reflect on their individual and collective needs, as well as their
expectations and dreams in the future of their relationships.
University students' romantic relationships, which they gloss as
'serious,' appear to be processual and non-linear, and are
considered to be stabilising forces which are pitched against the
inherent uncertainty in young people's lives.
