Hello, everyone.
Welcome to my blog and another wonderful edition of the Hive Learner's featured post. Our world continues to evolve as well as improve. In those days, you could only be friends with people you had seen and must have had contact with, but technology has made it possible such that we can now be friends with people we have never seen and might never see as well, but we can still be friends for a very long time and even share stuff with each other more than we share with our offline friends and even family. With the help of technology, people around the globe can now be connected through social media platforms like Facebook, WhatsApp, Twitter, Discord, and Instagram. Technology has made it possible that we can get to know each other without meeting in person.
I trust many people are on the table when we talk about those that were madly in love with people they never saw until they broke up. I have a friend who never let us hear anything else aside from stories about his then Philippine girlfriend and how he will look for a way to travel to the Philippines immediately after high school. He talks about her every now and then and had many plans for them, more like he was obsessed with her, though he had never seen her, but she was the love of his life, and until they broke up, he never got to see her, but he was more comfortable sharing things with her than even us. He saw her every day of his life.
One thing that helps a friendship thrive is being comfortable around that person; sometimes we find ourselves being comfortable talking with our digital friends, those we have not seen before because of how they have presented themselves, how they talk, and how they respond to the things we say. Sometimes our online friends tend to be more understanding than the friends we see always; they tend to be able to give better advice than our offline friends, and despite the fact we might have not been able to see each other in person, they know when we are being serious and when we are joking.
Another key to keeping any friendship or relationship is communication; checking up on each other as well as getting to know each other better can only happen when you communicate. They get to know how you want to be talked to, and they get to know what gets you angry when you all communicate. Communication is key to a lot of things; parties involved get to know if the friendship or relationship will work or not with how the communication goes. If it is shaky, then they already know how it is going to end, and if it is good and the vibe is there, it also shows the direction in which the friendship or relationship is going.
Setting boundaries and letting people know their place In your life is another way to keep a friendship or relationship thriving. I have seen parasitic friendships where the guy felt like the girl was into him and he was busy doing boyfriend duties, whereas on the side of the girl, he was just a friend and nothing more, but she never told him his place in her life, and the day he found out the painful truth was the day their friendship died off and everyone moved on with their lives. Letting people know their place in your life will help keep them in line and ensure they do not cross the line, and that way parties involved are both happy and the friendship thrives.
Unfortunately, this is very common in relationships between men and women, especially when they are young. There are many misunderstandings.
A lot of misunderstandings come into the picture when you don't let people know their place.
You have really listed the ways how relationship can be maintained. Thanks for sharing
Thank you for stopping by.
Hello there, bro. I also mentioned communication. The importance of steady communication in a relationship cannot be overemphasized.
Thanks for sharing.
Communication is a key factor to ensuring that a friendship or a relationship thrives.
Communication is the keep peice to every healthy relationship
Communication is everything,be it friendship or relationship, the only thing that keeps it going is how you both communicate.
