As community-oriented and social beings, relationships matter. There are several types of relationships that one can be a part of and each one to an extent shapes the way an individual responds. Whether it’s a spousal relationship or one consisting of colleagues or coworkers, fostering healthy and progressive relationships require effort and intent.
Human beings are social creatures. Even if you tend to be a loner, there are still people in your life that you might encounter at some point. There is some type of relationship established with people you have a regular interaction with.
These people include :
- Parents /grand parents/ in-laws
- Siblings / extended family members (cousins/aunts/uncles)
- Spouse / significant other
- Child(ren)
- Friends
- Colleagues/Coworkers
- Business Partners
- Community members (i.e. neighbors, church group, organizations)
