Intro
This entry reconstructs expectation architecture in relationships as a core structural system, focusing on implicit expectations, expectation asymmetry, expectation drift, and stabilisation mechanisms. It explains how relationships operate through unspoken expectation structures that coordinate behaviour, responsibility, and attention, and how misalignment within these systems leads to instability without immediate conflict.
Key concepts include: expectation architecture, implicit coordination, expectation asymmetry, expectation drift, relational stability, and interpersonal system dynamics.
