Friends are people who share similar values with us.And keeping strong friendships is an important part in most people's life.Friendships can help us fight against loneliness, get rid of anxiety(焦虑) and have better physical health.But it's hard to keep a friendship.
According to a research led by Megan Robbins, a professor at the University of California, the key to keeping a friendship is to use “we-talk”.The researchers examined 30 different studies on over 5,000 people.This largest-ever analysis(分析)of “we-talk” suggested that the more we use the words” “we”and “us”, the happier and healthier relationships will be.The word” makes people much closer to each other. “It offers a deep understanding on whether people regard themselves as individuals (个体)or as a part of the whole.The use of words is a window that we can know about what people are thinking and feeling without asking themselves, Robbins said.Her research also found that “we-talk”was helpful to solve conflicts(冲突).It may bring about positive(正面的) thinking on the opposite side.
Comparing with “we-talk”, there is “I-talk”, which refers to the use of “I”, “me”,and “mine”more often when writing or speaking.Earlier, researchers from the University of Arizona, the US, examined a set of data that came from 4, 700 people.They found that too much”I-talk”showed that someone was feeling stressed or experiencing negative feelings.
The two studies suggested that too much “I-talk” may make us feel bad.But “we-talk” may encourage us to be more positive.So next time when you're talking to a friend, try using more “we-talk”.you may find yourself feeling more positive and the effects it has on your friend may be positive as well.
