Humans are social animals and we all seek variety in our everyday life. Expecting one person to meet all our emotional needs is unrealistic and can lead to undue stress and pressure on that individual. Instead, having a variety of relationships—each contributing differently to our emotional well-being—can lead to greater happiness and fulfillment. The natural human tendency is to seek out different qualities in people, which no single person can embody entirely. This concept is illustrated through our various life roles, such as being a friend, partner, parent, professional, and more. Each role allows us to connect with others who meet specific emotional needs, thus distributing the emotional load and fostering a healthier social environment. In this episode we have shared a famous legend from Mahabharata which underscores that one person cannot be everything to another, and as humans we naturally are dependent about our emotional needs from different people in our which could be the key to a happier life.
