Very few in this world prefer to age in solitary. Unless you're a castaway in an unchartered island, and not many would choose to be. And that would be far-fetched considering that no islet nor isle has not been mapped in this day and age. And to move up in the society, one has to have some form of human interaction, a relationship of some sort. Relationship does not necessarily connote a romantic attachment. It can be a professional affiliation, for example the employee-employer relationship that you and your boos or your employee (if you are the boss) has. Or perhaps it may pertain to the bond between you and your sibling(s). And these associations with different people are part and parcel of your daily existence, so whether you are the solitary type or the outgoing kind, having a relationship is something inevitable. And considering it is, maintaining a healthy one is imperative because it plays an important role in our over-all well-being. Whatever relationship we foster will expectably reflect in our behavior. A single discordant relationship may affect the other relationships you are trying to nurture because of the stress it may bring. For example, a spat with your wife before you went to work may trigger you to become grumpy and unapproachable, thereby putting your relationship with your colleagues and your superiors at risk.

Should we really run after our relationships? Well an important and exciting question which really hit our mind every now and then. What are relationships and why they are so important for us? Well for some a relation is just what we inherit from our birth. For some people relations are created on earth. For some, relations are the most important asset of our life and yet some other people may consider it as the most important liability or burden.
