EQ drives a lot of areas of our lives such as rational decision making, physical health, relationship management, conflict resolution, performance at work, and social well -being. By reconnecting with our emotions, accepting them as they are, we can control our emotional outbursts or impulsive reactions and see the world in a more empathetic way.

An understanding between two life partners, parent-children, or employee manager is very essential for formulating a healthy relationship that would stick in tested times. Feelings like jealousy, obsession, selfishness, conditional behavior need to be replaced with fondness, care, sharing values, nurturing, kindness, sacrifice, non-judgemental views, and acceptance of each other’s strengths and weaknesses.

Types of relationships

Relationships refer to the association, interaction, and bond between two or more people. During the entire circle of life, we make different kinds of relationships to spend our lives with. Although there can be any kind of relationship based on the type of connection, however, few basic ones are listed below:

Family Relationships: Our family relationships are formed either by the bloodline (parents & siblings), marriage, and extended relatives. Families come in different forms such as joint families, nuclear families, single-parent families, stepfamilies, etc. Family relationships are usually life long and work on mutual love and respect.

Friends: People whom we choose to interact with us and accompany us in our journey of life. Friends are people whom we trust, respect, care about, and choose to confide in. There are varying types of friendships, some are close ones, and some last for a short span. Overall, friendship works on principals of honesty, trust, support, and loyalty.

Acquaintances: These are the people whom we are in touch with daily, but are not our family or friends. They can be anyone from our neighbors, house help, colleagues, people from college, etc. Such relationships work on skills of politeness, humility, respectfulness, and harmony in communication.

Romantic Relationships: When two people are attracted to each other emotionally, physically and a mental level such relationships are being formed. These can be heterosexual or homosexual. An incredibly strong connection is being observed in romantic relationships as they bond at such a level that they have with no one else. Successful Romantic relationships are built on love, trust, respect, support, acceptance, shared interests, and a desire for the two people involved to share their lives.

Important factors to keep in mind in any kind of relationship

Communication: It is the key to any kind of relationship. Any form of expression requires communication be it feelings, emotions, needs, expectations, or intimacy. The base of any relationship is strengthened by clear communication skills.

Happiness: One can’t be in a state of happiness all the time, but it is what everyone craves for in any kind of relationship. Happiness is a piece of work in relationships and if people are not happy then that relationship holds no meaning.

Self-love: A relationship is not a means to keep one fulfilled all the time, it is an add on to your self-love. If we can’t love ourselves, then how can we be happy in any relationship. Self-love demands being kind, forgiving, and accepting to one own self. It entails letting go of any baggage of the past and being happy with one’s choices and the way we are. When we are brimming with self-love, we would like to share it with others as well, leading to beautiful relationships.

Healthy Boundaries: Any solid relationship stands at the pillar of healthy boundaries. People involved in relationships of any sort should be aware of their physical and emotional boundaries and can communicate with each other on any related conflicts openly.
