People were made to interact

We were made to interact.
From a spiritual stand point, we were made to interact. Christians will say to you that God saw how important it was for man to interact not just with animals and plants but with his equals- hence the reason for Eve and procreation.

Why do most people find it very difficult to sit by someone for a long period and don't say something to that person. Those who accomplish it, do so with great discomfort. Why people end up online chatting with hundreds of people they dont have a clue about? No man is an island. We some times need direction, affection, medical attention, companion. Interaction brings us closer together and helps us support each other while at the same time accomplishing a lot. Scheinkman(2004) says that social interaction is useful for resolving issues and achieving goals.

If one tries to imagine a world where there is little or no interaction between the people, one will discover a world that is truly unbalance and boring. Iacoboni et al (2003) believes that interaction builds this community spirit in people and it helps people identify the line of authority in a system.
