the real purpose of a relationship?

[Joel18]

So actually what is the real purpose of a relationship. For a person who have never been into a relationship there would be a curious desire to know what's that but it's just for a while but actually what would be the exact reason behind people being in relationships.

The purpose of a
relationship can be unique to each individual and couple. What's most important is finding a relationship that nourishes your mind, body, and soul...

That’s a deep and meaningful question, and the answer is different for everyone. But if we strip away the romanticized illusions, the real purpose of a relationship is connection, growth, and companionship.

At its core, a relationship should:

1. Provide Emotional Support – Life is unpredictable, and having someone to share joys and sorrows with makes the journey easier.

2. Encourage Growth – A good relationship challenges you to become a better version of yourself, not just for your partner but for your own self-improvement.

3. Offer Companionship – Humans are social beings. Having someone who truly understands you can bring a sense of fulfillment and belonging.

4. Give a Sense of Security – It’s about knowing that no matter what happens, someone will stand by your side.

5. Allow Love to Be Expressed – Love isn’t just a feeling—it’s an action, a choice, a constant effort to care, respect, and uplift
each other.

Exactly! There’s no universal blueprint for a relationship—each one is shaped by the people in it. Some seek stability and companionship, while others look for passion and adventure. But at the core, a healthy relationship should nourish your mind, body, and soul rather than drain it.

A relationship should feel like:

Peace, not pressure.

Growth, not stagnation.

Understanding, not control.

Support, not suffocation.


If it doesn’t uplift you, it’s not love—it’s a lesson. Would you ever consider a relationship if it truly aligned with your sense of freedom and individuality?

How can u tell u weren't been in any relationships?.
U were born with relationships.
Later when you grow up, ur priorities and people may change.
That's all..
It's almost similar to the law of conservation of energy.

Relationships fulfill our need for love, understanding, and companionship. They offer comfort in difficult times....joy in happy moments and a mirror for self-discovery. A meaningful relationship can give life purpose and enrich our experiences making us feel seen... valued and understood.

That’s beautifully put! Relationships, in their truest form, should be about mutual growth, understanding, and support. They give us a space where we can be vulnerable yet strong, independent yet connected.

But at the same time, not every relationship serves this purpose. Some become draining, some teach us lessons, and some simply don’t last. Have you ever felt that a relationship (any kind—friendship, family, love) truly added depth to your life? Or do you feel most relationships come with hidden conditions?
