Relationships and Love What is a Relationship? ![]() So, what is a relationship? First and foremost, it's a positive, nurturing act. That starts to limit things. So, how many of your own interactions would you now describe as a relationship? Before we get into the detail of relationships, it's worth looking at human interaction. Broadly speaking, human interactions fall into three types: Association: In an association, two or more persons agree to abide by a set of rules. They relate to each other purely through the framework provided by their common rulebook. Associations are common in the workplace, in political parties, in religious affiliations, or any organised network. A marriage may be an association if the bond that joins the two parties is based entirely on marriage vows and traditional husband-and-wife roles. The marriage contract tends to patch over the cracks in human compatibility. We are naturally compatible with about one in fifty people, so the rules of marriage provide a framework that keeps many less compatible couples together - especially in communities where tradition is important. And yet, humans still have an irrepressible desire for a truly satisfying and a nurturing relationship with a partner. The irony is that identification of our best potential partners requires us to try them out for a couple of years or so! Even the most open-minded society would frown upon this suck-it-and-see approach to partner selection. It damages self-esteem, causes huge upheavals, and wastes time and energy. But science is catching up with relationships. Biorythms theory has unravelled the secrets of successful relationships. Now we can identify our natural biological partners on the basis of their infradian biorhythms using Biomatch (TM) online matchmaking service.

But it's there in all our lives - and it comes from the beliefs and values of our immediate families, communities, and governments. Total oppression is rare, but partial oppression is a common way of interacting with others - especially among those for whom cultural, economic, and intellectual differences are reinforced by prejudice. Young people tend to be oppressed by adults because adults cannot see the world through the young person's eyes. Oppression can be passive or active. Passive oppression renders people powerless by withholding information or the means to self-discovery. Active oppression usually comes in the shape of threats or physical punishment. Most oppressors appear caring and generous. By passing themselves off as trustworthy, they can get away with their oppression. What they lack is a sense of justice - or any ability to see beyond their own goals. That's why there are always different sets of rules for the oppressor and the oppressed. Oppression is the single biggest enemy of relationships. An oppressor can never have a relationship with, let alone feel love for, an oppressed victim, if he or she fails to see the world through the victim's eyes. ![]() Some relationships happen naturally and deepen quickly; others develop more slowly with time and mutual effort. If both parties are willing to work at it, interactions and associations can also develop into relationships. One thing is certain, you can only have a relationship with someone who wants to have a relationship with you. Anything else is partial or full oppression. Before we go any further, let's have a look at love. Love: What is this thing we all crave? Love is the affinity experienced between two people who are naturally able and willing to tune into one another's emotional, intellectual, and physical states - and respond to them in a nurturing and a stimulating way. No doubt about that then; love is a relationship. If you could just stir in some physical compatibility, you'd get something that's even better: a relationship that's both sexual and loving. Bliss! Physical compatibility is often confused with style and ephemeral good looks. Although we might initially feel a strong visual attraction for someone, that feeling has, at best, limited value in a love relationship. Physical compatibility is long-term. It's about a shared appreciation of being together, and a shared enjoyment of intrinsic qualities such as natural scents, sounds, taste, form, and touch. More on love... Postscript Human psyche and behaviour within relationships is a huge area of study. No website could hope to cover it all. Biomatch.com is essentially about infradian biorhythms and the creation of successful relationships. It would be incomplete if we didn't draw your attention to a few relevant factors.
