Every" or All?

Hi, I just wanna ask the follwing question and your comment will be appreciated.

Which setence is more correct or both are ok:

This theory should apply to all relationships which have a smilar situation, or


This theory should apply to all relationship which has a smilar situation, or

This theory should apply to every relationship which has a smilar situation?

I understand the meaning of "every" is different from "all", but sometimes I feel that they can be used in the same situation?

cheers
