We all have relationships. 16
F
However, for a large percentage of us, many of these relationships are simply not satisfying. They are unsatisfying because they lack (缺少) real strength, and they lack real strength because they lack real depth.
I'd like to show you how to build stronger relationships and make your social life a lot more meaningful.
●Meet more people.
You go out a lot, you meet a lot of new people and you keep widening your social circle. 17
G
These people can probably become your good friends, dependable partners, etc.
●Talk about the things that matter to you.
Tell people what you experienced and give others a chance to know what you care about and what you believe in. If they believe and care in the same things, they'll eagerly let you know. 18
E
●Express weakness.
19
C
However, by hiding your imperfections, what you do succeed in is appearing cold. Humans connect with other humans; not with ideals (完美的人). Keep this in mind. Don't be afraid to let your weakness and your humanity show. This is what takes a relationship to the next level.
