Relationship

Relationship: A relationship refers to the interpersonal and intrapsychic dynamics between two or more people.

The term is often used to describe an intimate love relationship, but a broader view encompasses friendships and the interactions between members of families and within work settings.

Often those in such relationships recognize that they would benefit from an opportunity to develop awareness and to increase their insight.

Better communications make it easier to optimize the pleasure and productivity of relationships, to resolve issues and problems creatively, to deepen emotional intimacy, to build a successful future and even to bring the relationship to a dignified conclusion if that is desired.
