Importance of Human Relationships

One of the key factors for a long and healthy life is having strong human relationships. Psychiatrist Robert Waldinger states that people who are more connected to others and have warmer relationships tend to live longer and stay healthier. These relationships don't have to be with a large group of people; introverts may only need one or two close relationships. It's not a one-size-fits-all situation, as different people have different needs, and the relationships can also extend to pets, providing comfort, joy, and a calming effect.
