CIDNT Pre-Writing: Part One

As we start this unit on The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time, and look specifically at relationships and their role in our lives, please think about and write your response to this question:

Why do we need relationships?

I am looking for a good, four or more sentences, answer to this question that really gives me an idea of what you think and believe.

We need relationships to keep from going insane. It does not matter wehat kind of relationship, as long as it is a good one. We need relationships to hold on to the ones we love and to stay conmnected. If we do not have relationships the world would not be the same place, but the thing is not all relationships are good. If you have a bad relationship with someone that is unheatlhy then it brings everyone else down.

I think that we need relationships to have someone to talk to and be around. You need someone to talk to so you do not go crazy. If you have a good relationship with someone then you will feel good all of the time. However if you have a bad relationship with someone then you will feel like a bad person all of the time.

I think we need relationships because people always desire love and attention. Without relationships everyone would be lonely and boring. Also without relationships such as marriage, then there would be no children and therefore the humans would fade. You also need then to grow, learn, and interact with people.

I think we need relationships becuase they help us live and they are just a part of life. If we didn't have relationships where would we be? The world wouldn't be the same, it would be boring and there would be no love or anything. Relationships are what keep us close to one another and interacting with everyone else around us. There are good and bad relationships, which we all need to have. No one likes having a bad relationship, but we all have them whether we want to or not.

I think that we need relationships so that we have someone that we can tell our secrets and things that we do not always tell other people. We also need them because if you have a good relationship with somebody than they can make you feel good and make you happy. If we did not have relationships than we would be anti-social. Relationships keep us close to everybody, while hopefully making everyone involved happy

I believe that we need relationships for many reasons. To start off we need them to be able to communicate to one another whether it is a bad relationship or a good one. Another reason is so you can have special people become close to you. Also so that those people who are close to you can help you with things or situations that you would go to just a friend about. In addition if there were no relationships, every single person would be anti-social.

Relationships are some of the biggest needs of a human. People feel the need to be cared for and care for others. We feel the need to love and be loved. And that is why relationships are so important. If we didn't have relationships, where would we find that love and care.

It may not be a boyfriend/girlfriend relationship, but a friend relationship. Either way, we always need someone there for us and both relationships have that characteristics. A relationship is always good to have and everyone needs them. Love is the biggest relationship you can have. When someone is in love all you need to care about is being happy. A friend relationship is good because you know that a certain person will always be there to help you. Everyone needs to have a relationship to really live. Relationships are the best thing a person can have with someone else.

It is part of human nature to have relationships. We need relationships so that we do not get lonely and also so we can have a companion. Relationships are part of our lives and, with relationships, you can trust people. It is important to trust people because then you can talk to them about things and ideas. All of these reasons make relationships important.

We need relationships because we were made to have them. We depend on the people we have relationships with for lots of things. They keep us in line and help us see the other side of things. they are there when you need to talk. If we didn't have somebody to talk to then we would all keep everything bottled up inside and eventually explode. We need relationships to discover, and bounce ideas off of. We need them so that we can see through different eyes. What we can add to the relationships we have is what makes us unique and special.

Relationships are what make up our lives. Sometimes in today’s society this is forgotten. We often forget how much relationships can affect us a person until we loose them in many cases. Through relationships we learn many things like how to handle situations. Based on your past, you will react differently to incidents you will encounter in the future, sometimes for the best, and sometimes for the worst. Either way, you have learned from your mistakes, or your achievements, they are both very important. Also, relationships can show a person a lot about themselves. They can learn what kind of people they enjoy, and also, they get tested to see if they will fall under peer pressure. Relationships affect the lives of everyone, in so many ways.

I don't think that humans need relationships with each other. I think that they are trained that they need a relationship with another human but i think that a relationship with nature would suffice. I don't know. I don't like having people around.

I think that we need relationships because, without them, we would be lonely. I just can’t imagine life without friends, a girlfriend, or boyfriend for the girls, parents, etc. you need them to keep yourself in line with reality. If we didn’t have them, or if we didn’t make them, you would go crazy.
