What do we mean by
PERSONAL
RELATIONSHIPS?
The concept of relationship is very broad
and complex. In our model, personal
relationships refer to close connections
between people, formed by emotional
bonds and interactions. These bonds often
grow from and are strengthened by mutual
experiences.
Relationships are not static; they are
continually evolving, and to fully enjoy and
benefit from them we need skills,
information, inspiration, practice, and
social support.
In our model there are three kinds of
personal relationships:

F F P
• Family
• Friends
• Partnerships
Family

The concept of "family" is an essential


component in any discussion of
relationships, but this varies greatly
from person to person.
The Bureau of the Census defines
family as "two or more persons
who are related by birth, marriage,
or adoption and who live together
as one household."
Nicholas Christakis and James Fowler,
social-network researchers and authors of
the book Connected, find that the average
person has about six close ties—though
some have more, and many have only one
or none.
Friends

A friendship can be thought of as a


close tie between two people that is
often built upon mutual experiences,
shared interests, proximity, and
emotional bonding. Friends are able
to turn to each other in times of need.
Note!
Online friends don’t count toward close
ties—research indicates that a large online
network isn’t nearly as powerful as having
a few close, real-life friends
Partnerships

Romantic partnerships, including


marriage, are close relationships
formed between two people that are
built upon affection, trust, intimacy,
and romantic love. We usually
experience this kind of relationship
with only one person at a time.
Why PERSONAL
RELATIONSHIPS are
important?
Research shows that healthy relationships
can help you:
• Live longer
• Deal with stress
• Be healthier
• Feel richer
On the other hand, low social support is
linked to a number of health consequences,
such as:
• Depression
• Decrease immune
function
• Higher
blood Pressure
