How can one define the term "relationship"?

I think a relationship is essentially the invisible thread that connects us to others. Maybe i define relationship term idk but It's not just about being friends or family; it's about how we understand, care for, and interact with each other. It's those late-night talks, shared laughs, and sometimes even the tough arguments that bring us closer and make each relationship uniquely ours. What think about you?

Defining "relationship" is like trying to describe the flavor of water – it's so fundamental yet so varied. But let me give it a shot from a personal angle. To me, it's like two novels intertwining their narratives, each chapter enriched by the other's presence.

It's also a dance of give-and-take. Sometimes you lead, sometimes you follow, but the rhythm is always in sync. It's about balancing your needs with theirs, celebrating victories together, and supporting each other through the storms. It's a partnership where you're both equally invested.

A relationship is a safe haven, too. It’s where you can be your most authentic self, warts and all, and still feel accepted and loved. It's like having a personal cheerleader, therapist, and best friend all rolled into one.

And it's not just about the big moments – the anniversaries, the birthdays, the grand gestures. It's about the small, everyday things – the inside jokes, the shared glances, the quiet support. These are the threads that weave the tapestry of a relationship.

Of course, relationships also involve work. It’s not always rainbows and butterflies; it can be more like navigating a ship through a storm. But the effort is worth it because it strengthens the bond.

So, I believe, a relationship evolves, grows, and sometimes takes unexpected turns.. And just like any journey, it's not just about the destination, but also about the experiences along the way.

I agree and I would like to add most people are their most authentic raw selves around people that they hold relationships with , for the most part. Definitely beautiful to see when we live in a world that often shuns people from being their true selves

A bond between two beings, no matter how strong or weak that bond may be

Yeah like that... Like segments of contracts. Some broken contracts are more forgivable than others. The more communication happens the more we can expect this or that and be more dissatisfied when it doesn't come to pass. Is what it is.

I think from the basics... just look at the word "relationship" and break it apart. Relation... we relate on some level. May it be moral values or we just enjoyed the same aspects in the same movie. I mean just look at two people and how they both dig into their past to show how much they relate to each other's experiences. You watch the bond form from shit like that. It could be anything from a plan to rob a bank to mutual goals. Is what it is.

EVeryone need not have the same definition. What works for me may not work for many other guys; what works for you may only work for you. Doesn't matter if you're happy.

the way in which two or more people or groups regard and behave toward each other.

Emotional thread. The spectrum runs from acquaintance to married 80 years.

They are what you make of them.

Two people that wanna be more than just friends.
