A Relationship could almost be every bond between a human to another. A relation could be between you and your neighbour, your teacher or maybe the old man who’s feeding the birds that you see every time you walk out the door. Some people have a relation to a god, or a celebrity. Everyone have some kind of relation to another in some sort. A relation does not necessary have to be friendly, a bond of hatred is also a relationship. You can even have a relation with a human that you never met in person, an Internet-relation for example. Internet relations are much more complicated, then ordinary relations, as you never met the person in real life. There are a lot of sites dedicated for internet chatting, where you can get a membership and start to make new friends. The online chat-program “MSN” is great for communicate over the Internet. The positive things about having online-friends is that you can get friends with the exactly the same interests as you, which often aren’t the case in real life. You may also find it easier to open up when you’re behind the screen, maybe you would get closer easier online then if you where friends in real life.
 The negative side of having friends online is that your whole relation could be based on lies, but of course a “normal” relationship could be that too. That nice seventeen-year-old friend of yours could be a forty-three-year-old male, disguised with the help of the keyboard and computer screen, that’s the scary part of having friends you never seen in real life. In the meantime it’s really fascinating that a person you never met, and probably never will meet could be such a big part of your life. I prefer real friends though, then you know for sure who you’re talking to. So what’s the point of relationships? I think all of us know the answer to that question. Relationships are as necessary for people as bananas are to monkeys, because everyone needs some sort of human contact. Many people wouldn’t even have the will to live if it wasn’t because of good friends and relatives. Being social active is almost a basic criterion for having an ideal-life. A person merely can’t handle a basic job without being socially active, because almost every job demands some form of social cooperation. Sure, there are probably a lot of people who enjoy being lonely, but they aren’t many.
