Hello fellow Hiveians, when it comes to human survival the most important part is to stick together and being strong to face the situation at hand. In means of this method, we still try everything in our power to be with someone who cares about us and be with them means a lot to us. Nowadays, relationships, friendship seems to be not that much with serious bonding. People lack the patience to be with someone and fighting over something stupid. Being a friend and in a relationship is a gift tht requires time and effort with an intention for staying together. These connections can be formed and make them genuine is only through your efforts.
Main thing in forming a relationship either it may be a friendship or a relationship, we need to be true to ourselves and make sure to show yourself as you were. This is called being yourself. We don't have to be someone else to be in a relationship. This helps to form the trust between two people or a group. Trust is the most important thing in forming a relationship, the only way to do that is to be yourself. Express yourself and give a chance to express others themselves too, meaning to give them the push to be with people.
Not always talk about yourself rather to hear what others are saying. It's not just hearing words they are saying, contribute your opinion in the matter too and give attention to the details of the conversation. Feel the emotional state they are in while talking about the stuff and listen accordingly. This shows the validation required to show that they matter through their experience. Try to be attentive and listen the things others are saying and contribute something in return on the conversation which leaves a good mark on your part.
Understanding others with their emotional state and trying to see the world from their perspective shows compassion with empathy. Being there in worst situation of their life and best moments of their lives shows them that you are a safe space where others feel supported and valued. All people need is some sort of validation from others and be there when they are in their lowest point. By being in their shoe you can show the empathy they need and build a relationship that never ends.
Having a dozens of friends and being in many relationships doesn't achieve anything as the matter is about quality, not quantity. Be in a relationship where the other person respects you, understands you, be there for you and similarly form friendship with persons who are being themselves and support you as you are. Concentrate on few which are good for your life and make efforts to be with them. These type of connections will last longer.
Whenever there is a conflict between eachother, try to analyse the situation and get the information on what happened. Remember as conflicts are the common in any other living people. Deep connections form depending on how we handle the disagreement and it can break too. Approach the conflict with thoughts of solution and agreement rather than firing the disagreement. Efforts to be taken up with good intentions and constant caring needs to be there for forming relationship. Communication is the key in a relationship and acts of kindness. Even a quick message on checkup can lighten the mood for others and strengthen the bond.
Supporting Individual growth and in the mean time being in a collective growth is a healthy relationship. Encouraging others to persue their dreams and support them to evolve independently. Appreciate the people in your life and show gratitude to not showing that they are taking for granted. In conclusion, relationships and friendships gives us purpose.
Nicely written.
That's true dear.
We all need someone that is honest and true in every friendship or relationship.
Like I, I hardly open up to someone that is not true and honest at first.
And if I find out later during the period of our friendship that you are dishonest.
It hurts me so bad.
Thank you for sharing your opinion, what you are saying is correct and it hurts when we get to know them.
You are welcome dear
Have a good day
