Hey there. This thread is about your thoughts and feelings on communication; whether it be between those in a relationship or just communication between friends. While that is a pretty open question it should be relatable to just about anybody here.

As far as I can say communication between people who are in a relationship or are just friends has gone on for ages. In a way it makes you wonder where we got our knack for letting others know something "communication" in the first place. My thoughts when it comes to a relationship is that its pretty vital and my feelings on it more so as it just seems like it would kind of suck if one couldn't say "I love you" to someone they are sharing their life with.

When it comes to friendship I can virtually just about go the same way as my previous statement in regards to a relationship though it may not be as serious as with friendship though friendship itself has its own more real side to it. I mean if I didn't have the ability to ask someone or vice versa some ask me to be a friend, exactly how far would say I, that person, or anyone get without the plain and simple fact that we need to be able to communicate somehow in some way, shape, or form.

Imagine if you will watching or playing a game with a friend so to speak . That boss they just tackled was really hard and now that they have beaten it what do you do if you can't tell your friend "YOU DID AWESOME!"

Interesting isn't it? All the things we get and give out of being able to simply just say something to someone. Its ever bigger than what it seems and when looked upon one can almost wonder..."What in the world?"

I'm going to put an overall on this and say quite openly: we really need to communication to continue to have a future.

I'm not saying its the only thing we need but, it is essential.

And if anything I hope this thread can shed a little enlightenment to those who have wondered about the very thing we have used since the beginning.

Our ability to communicate.

Thank you

Communication is the lifeblood of any relationship in friendship and beyond. There is no cutting around this point. If you want something to last, talk to that person, dummy!

Communication is what makes a relationship stay strong in my opinion. Im not talking about chatting with yo gal for 24/7 everyday and post a 'when you wait for bae to reply' memes on your timeline when he/she didn't reply your chat in 10 minutes, what im sayin is, keeping in touch with your love one is what makes your relationship being strong, like, try to send a message or do a facetime if you have a chance. Funny story, i've lost one of my gf just because I didn't message her in 2 months cause my phone was broke (eh, it was a big deal but whatever) and i kinda regret it cause she's a 100. So yeah, communicate with your loved one i guess :/

I know I have communication problems. But, when I start talking to some people I communicate well with them. This will then in turn have me enjoy talking to those people who I normally would everyday. Greet then with a great smile they see and greet back in happiness it means we enjoy each others company a lot to talk about things. In order for me not to forget or to stop since having a short term memory I keep talking to those I enjoy talking to everyday. Month after month year after year that's how friendships and relationships grow.


Not all friendships stay strong, and can crumble easily. You would face challenges it would really put to the test how strong your relationship or your friendship is with people.

Communication is absolutely necessary to keep your bonds with other people and relationships strong, which is why I've been having a hard time dealing with not having a phone, because literally every single person at my school has a phone except me. Luckily, I get a phone in about 3 weeks or so. Anyway, on to what I was saying. if you don't communicate with a person, your bond will grow weaker and weaker as time goes on, and then when/if you finally decide to communicate with them again, it'll feel pretty awkward.

Communication is definitely important in a relationship. Either simple communication or more serious communication. Unfortunately I had a 5 month relationship end yesterday because of communication. Of course there is a possibility of getting back together with her, but at this point, we need are time away. It wasn't a knock out, drag out, we hate each other deal, it's just that when someone I care about, someone I am in a relationship with is having a rough time, very stressed out and frustrated. I want to be there for them. When they push you away, it frustrates both people. Then when they pretty much tell you to leave them alone, and " **** off" that really hurts. Of course since then we have spoke, but it was pretty much that we need time away from each other. Granted we don't spend all the time together, because she works many hours, and we live 35 minutes from each other. Granted we have communication via text/phone, but it's best to have that in person communication.
