Need to belong: A motivation to bong with others in relationships shops that provide ongoing, positive interactions.
We are attracted to other people. People are social animals. What happens if other people are not attracted to us? Does it hurt when people don't like us? Absolutely. This is called ostracism.
You may have experienced at some point in your life being socially ostracized by some group (think back to junior high). The ostracism can include:
- Acts of excluding or ignoring
- Silent treatment
- Shunning
