The stories people tell have a way of taking care of them. If stories come to you, care for them. And learn to give them away where they are needed.

If there is an atom to relationships, I think it's this: Expressed belief in the other person. Whether it's friendships, couples, or family ties, the one thing most attractive and ensuring of longevity is, after a lot of consideration, expressed belief. |

I think this is true, although I've usually reduced it down to expressions of respect and sincere appreciation. The research and surveys supporting this idea in various ways usually use these terms as well. Interestingly, in that research, these things tend to show up higher in the hierarchy of needs for men than women, so I usually include that in my evaluation of cultural trends and consequences. |
