About this title

Synopsis

It’s only natural: people are fundamentally social creatures, yearning for close, meaningful bonds with others. We crave and consequently forge human relationships that give our lives meaning. In fact, thousands of studies have linked the quality of people’s closest relationships to better health, longevity, and well-being. Many questions arise when we ponder what makes a good relationship. How should we handle conflict? What roles do trust and commitment play?

In The Science of Relationships, TIME delves into the mysteries of connection in three parts—romance, family, and friends—in a series of articles and essays. In “Love in the Age of Like,” actor and comedian Aziz Ansari ruminates on his parent’s arranged marriage what the myriad of options online dating opens up means for modern love. Next we break down “The Science of Flirting” and follow up with a guide to “Do-It-Yourself Couples Counseling.” In the family section, we prove that your annoying brothers and sisters really do help in the long run with “Why Siblings Make Us Better.” Finally out friendship section features complimentary articles “Why Women Make Bonds…” with “…And Men Go It Alone.” Whether relationships are the joy of your life or bane of your existence, The Science of Relationships will teach you more about growing strong bonds.
