Notable Quote
"Across many studies of mammals, from the smallest rodents all the way to us humans, the data suggests that we are profoundly shaped by our social environment and that we suffer greatly when our social bonds are threatened or severed. When this happens in childhood it can lead to long-term health and educational problems. We may not like the fact that we are wired such that our well-being depends on our connections with others, but the facts are the facts."
- Matthew Lieberman, Author of Social
3 Reasons
We want to be needed and relied on. We want to mean something to someone.
We want to feel validated as the people we are. A social circle proves that we aren't the "weird" kid.
We want to feel that, should we ever need it, someone has our back. Even if we don't want to rely on that.
