Relationships
|
Do you guys think that relationships are necessary in order to become a better person in life? Do you think or believe that a person can live life happily yet not meet anybody or refrain from having human relationships all together? Does a relationship with another person, not necessarily a husband and wife relationship or boyfriend and girlfriend relationship, help make you a better person? If not, could you become a better person without human interaction? I have my own thoughts on this matter, but I would like to know yours...  |

Humans cannot live without human interaction. It is impossible. Humans thrive on social interaction and thus any kind of relationship is necessary to stay sane. So, I guess, relationships are necessaary to become a better person and I guess it also depends on who the relationship is with and who that person is. But relationships do not necessarily make you a better person because they can also make you a...er...badder person? Friendships..er...are good :) But some friendships are bad. 
So I drove into a parking lot one time and saw this person pull into a handicap parking spot. When you think handicap, you think wheelchair and whatever, right? So it just ticked me off when I saw the guy come out of the car perfectly fine. So then I ran him over. |

I agree. Interaction is necessary for the development of a human being, including hurtful relationships. Those on the receiving end of the pain will hopefully learn to avoid doing such things to other people, thus making them better. In addition, positive relationships can lead to higher self-confidence or lifelong happiness.  |

Of course.. What are you willing to do by live in your own environment with no one beside you ? Interaction as well as relationship help you to grow your mind and maturing your attitude. How you know about feeling, happiness and angriness toward the relationship itself. Even you're now here at forum without facing anyone else, you're interact with others , rite ? I guess, you'll be a psycho if you just keep yourself and shut it against all the community. It ruins your whole life.  |

I think balance is the key in life. Relationships will help you grow in one way, but can hinder growth in others, it is important to have relationships as well as spend time completely alone with yourself to grow as a person. "I guess, you'll be a psycho if you just keep yourself and shut it against all the community. It ruins your whole life." Ouch...I don't think that's quite true. Some people have trouble interacting socially but that doesn't mean they should be written off like that, they have their reasons for withdrawing from society, and unless we know the individuals reasons we shouldn't write them off as a psycho, that certainly won't help them rejoin the community. Also I'm having trouble with this word "better", I do think a human in the wild with no contact to other humans, will grow and develop and become "better" over time then they were at birth, although not in any ways pertaining to modern society. Also, if this is the way the person was born (in the wild) and never knew the existance of other humans (but was near other animals), I see no reason why they would not be a happy and fulfilled person, it would just not be in a way understandable to us because we have been living in different conditions since birth. |

Absolutely. Relationships not just with other humans is needed for an individual to grow, learn and in general just experiance. Being able to maintain good relationships is what for more or less is what defines a person. All of life's exsistance is about your relationship with your family, your friends, that random stranger, the air, food and so fourth. People who can not interact unfortunatly fall on the outside of society and if not ignored are usually then taken care of. We don't only need relationships we need to be able to have them because in order to go on through life you will have to interact with others in some way. Not all relationships are positive however. Establishing one is ultimately but there are things as toxic people and these people have toxic relationships which can be very negative not just on them but you and everyone around. Then there are things like peer pressure and other thing that come into the picture that can sway interaction one way or another. But even so interaction is needed as we are social creatures, some more than others. |

I don't know though, but it's such obvious things I feel. When you are sunk into your own world, without anyone exist in it, and you start to create a piece of your own, trying to figure out the world without knowing and interact with others on REALITY, you'll be in your 'psycho' things. When I wrote a "psycho" this isn't talked about such a weirdy person, but it's approached about someone in finally cant accept what a TRUE things about. Well, it's much better, when they already realize that we're here not as INDIVIDUAL, but as socialize things who needs each other. |

I think being in a relationship betters you. I makes you feel like your worth something. People fall in love for a reason, and when your not in a relationship, sometimes you do feel lonely. Maybe relationships are not needed, but they feel good.

True that relasonships are a good thing. But are they needed? I wouldn't say absoulity no. but I can say that you could be a good person without them. However you still need to know about basic human behavior. You can't shut yourself from people and still think you know how they feel.

I don't feel relationships are necessary...but they are nice to have. There are some things that just can't truly be learned on your own. By interacting with others, we learn how to behave properly. We are hurt and praised, befriended and betrayed. All of which is not needed...but helps us to develop into mature beings. We see how people treat each other and by that, we learn how best to treat other people and our selfs. For all the pain and suffering it causes...there is just as much happiness to be found. Sometimes you have to look a bit harder for it.  |

I can see where your coming from N.I.Q. ^_~ I just don't completely agree, but that's okay ne, everyone is different. I think when people live alone they still live in "Reality" and may be very peaceful and content because some people function better alone. I also am not sure what "True" things you are speaking about, but I don't think living alone would be living a lie :\... I agree that the earth is a whole and we need to support each other. I think some people have trouble doing this socially though, and I do not look down on them for that. They may very well understand that we are "not here as individuals" but just don't know how to socialize or it feels strange and stressful for them to socalize. That is why I feel that if we want these people to come out and be with others we have to first try to understand them and accept them as they are. ^.^ |

Relationships need lots of time to develop and grow.. it cannot come swift for that kind would NEVER last. It is important to be able to spend time to love each other and hear out each others' problems.. but it is even better to have someone there for u when u need them. Saying so much, i myself long to have a good and lasting relationship.  |

I think everybody need relationships. Nobody wants to be lonely. You need other person to share your own feelings and experience. And other persons give you a sense in your life. Helping other people and spending time with them makes you happy.  |

yeah i think relationship is necessary, because of that relation we hurt another, we love another, we laugh one another, and we learn from one another. issue about this can easily seen for example Tarzan, what if tarzan never met jane?? well then he ought to be just like gorilla's just another creature of the world, what distinct us from animal is that we have mind and that mind is develop by relation when were babies. so is we can live without other humans well i think if tarzan real ( and if that an if) sure we can, but can you called that human, for the outer appearance maybe, but for intelligence and attitude and act and behavior, i think it's not

^True. Experienced that many times. It is even more common to kids whose grades are on the top of their class (I get that because my math and science scores are high). I have five levels a friends each with their own subcategory. Acquaintance friends, regular friends, reliable friends, good friends and best friends. I have only 2 best friends who I know will never betray me. Other than that, I still have a inkling of doubt in good friends. Love is a different story. After experiencing that so many times, you can say that each one will be painful, momentous, blissful and etc. Real love is actually something better than friendship. People who say the opposite evidentially haven't come across someone that they can entrust their life to. All in all, sometimes I don't find myself thinking like that at times :/ I'm just gonna stop here for now. I'm known to rant on and on. XD  |

oh my I'm not sure where to start or if this has anything to do with this kay here I go Lets see Relationships um...relationships is something for us to have. without it there would be no trust only strangers to each other and not knowing each other. having a relationship is like forming a bond between one to another with makes it easier to keep commu(gosh i hate spelling these types of words) with each other not feeling alone. it can be use for good or bad depending on the Person actions like having two friends with you but they don't get along Ex: AL is good with Ben and Christ but, Ben and Christ don't like each other (get where I'm going at? @_@) and for a few people who didn't have a good relationships tend to shut others away trusting no one and have a hot temper making one talking and actions negative. that's all I can think of for today...
