Why do we care about relationships?


Just as each of us needs food, water, and at least some other basic needs to adequately care for our physical bodies, our souls also have needs. This is a very philosophical topic, as ideas about how the human spirit functions vary. Many scientists lean toward the view that there is no such thing as our physical body at all, while others believe that the body is an integral part of our lives. Even the concept of the whole spirit has evolved over time. Formerly it was literally an intangible part, but was later replaced by a concept common to both modern psychology and sociology.

Even if we admit that we cannot look for something like this in our lives, we must acknowledge that there is something abstract within us, no matter what name we hide it under. And this abstract something must receive the care it deserves. One of the basic needs that must be fulfilled (to somewhat different degrees for each person) is that of human relationships and social connections. These violations affect not only our psychological well-being, but also our physical health. Relationships begin at home, from which we should gain a healthy foundation for relationships in later life. If a child is unlucky enough to find himself or herself in a home where relationships are damaged, whether by divorce of parents, death of parents, or other social problems, it is usually more pronounced in the child.

Everyone has a different ability to build relationships. Some are good at it, while others are a little less so. Again, this trait is often associated with positive or negative perceptions of oneself and the life one leads. This is because even when we are surrounded by the best people everywhere, there are moments when we realize that a new colleague is unfriendly or we want to yell at someone because things didn\’t go well today. It is in these moments that we need to deny ourselves and understand that even though it is difficult, the long-term results will always be worth it.
