Relational

Definition

The domain of relationships with other people and social systems. Covers reciprocity, mutuality, social safety, and the felt experience of being seen and received. When centered, relating remains mutual without loss of self. When under-active, others thin to outlines — relating happens from self-interest rather than real exchange. When over-active, the self over-accommodates, defers to, or disappears behind others.
