Relationship - Basics of good relationship

What is Relationship?

Relationship is defined in the dictionary as the relation between people or entities. It could also be stated as the mutual dealing or connections between persons or group of persons. Relations, sometimes the varient of relative is far from the definition of relative.

A relative of a person includes the spouse, ancestors, children, grandchildren, great grandchildren, the spouses of the individual’s children, etc. Whereas the relationship may involve anyone right from any living or non-living thing in this world. The relationship can be developed among oneself and an animal such as elephant or may be a horse.

We in this currently fast moving world are very busy and find less a time for maintaining relationships. Maintaining relationships is sometimes a simpler task and sometimes it is too difficult to handle which sometimes results in breaking of relationships.

Basic principles of a successful relationship

There are not many people who has ever not been through a relationship which is full of positive things. All the relationships needs to go through the test of times which either makes it more strong and sometimes it makes it shatter like a mirror. Every relationship starts from a mutual demand or need for something - which cound be a personal need, emotional need, professional need, etc. Below are some of the basic principles which defines a successful relationship:

  • Relationships are between people - i.e real people which makes them more beautiful. It is not between institutions.
  • Relationships fosters among people who share something common. Any common interest paves the path for a relationship. Finding common topics of interest creates opportunities for conversation, understanding, and mutual respect and appreciation.
  • Relationships builds and are nourished only when it is positively beneficial and giving to both parties or individuals concerned. Both parties must benefit from the relationship.
  • Relationships which are true and positive should be sincere, natural, and voluntary. Real relationships are not forced.
  • Movment of people from mere acquaintances to a true relationship occurs naturally out of time when individuals treat each other with respect.
  • Relationships needs constant repair and nurture. Neglected relation makes it more tough to take the test of time.
