Interpersonal relationship is defined as close
association between individuals who share common
interests and goals.
A strong bond between two or more people refers
to interpersonal relationship. Attraction between
individuals brings them close to each other and
eventually results in a strong interpersonal
relationship.

Two people might start a relationship as mere
strangers. They get to know each other slowly and
become emotionally and mentally attached to their
partners gradually. Such relationships often lead to
lasting commitments where individuals decide to be
with each other until death separates them.
6. POSSIBILITY-2
Two people might start off well but soon face
problems. Troubles in relationship start when people
have different opinions, views and fail to reach to a
mutually acceptable solution. In such cases individuals
decide to move on from a relationship for a fresh start.

every relationship goes through following five
stages.

organizations also help people meet, break the ice, get
acquainted with each other and start a relationship.

each other.

tend to gel with each other more as compared to
individuals from diverse backgrounds and different
objectives.

characterized by two individuals coming close, being
passionate and feeling for each other.

each other well decide to be in each other’s company
and tie the knot.

compatibility, trust, love and care often lead to
misunderstandings and serious troubles in

adjust with each other and eventually decide to bring
their relationship to an end.

it difficult to take the relationship to the next level.
