Answer:

Social exchange theory

Step-by-step explanation:

Carmen would deal with this using the social exchange theory. To do this carmen is going to weigh both sides of winnie as presented in this question. Her attractive and loyal side would be measured against her jealous and messy side.

Carmen would then decide to continue or quit this relationship depending on which side outweighs the other. If the messy and jealous side is greater, carmen may decide to quit.
