In the book
Every relationship you will ever have — friend, spouse, neighbor, colleague — runs on one invisible currency, and if you understand it you understand all of them. Think of it as an emotional bank account. It is the amount of trust that has been built up between two people, the felt sense of safety you have with another human being. And like any account, it runs on deposits and withdrawals. — Friends, Community & Society (Relationships/Community/Society)
