Relationships are central to our sense of belonging. How true is this for one character?

That is the question to my speech i have to do on the movie ';my big fat greek wedding';.


the thing is i dont really understand the question. could anybody help me out %26amp; give me examples?





btw My topic in year 12 advanced english is belonging.Relationships are central to our sense of belonging. How true is this for one character?
Never seen the movie but the question is asking this:





Imagine your best friend invites you out to dinner with three of her best friends. You don't know them, but you know her. How would you feel? Awkward? Shy? Out of place?





What if your friend invited you and three mutual friends? How would this be different?





If you look at the main character and her fiance, you can easily apply this. Her fiance (or whoever he is, I'm vague on the details) doesn't necessarily belong with these people and I'm sure he feels very out of place initially. Expand on the ways in which is different from them and how the character expresses his concerns about this.





Hope that helps,

Without relationships (friends, parents, etc) how do we know where we belong or feel accepted. We all have the desire to be wanted, appreciated, loved and healthy relationships fulfill this role.


I am guessing that you can pick any character you want, but an obvious choice would be Toula. Use her relationship with Gus as the bases for your answer. Describe her character, temperament, and social behavior before the relationship.


Then describe her again after the relationship begins. Note the difference.


If you鈥檙e feeling extra spunky throw in Maslow鈥檚 Hierarchy of Needs. This is basic psychology and describes how Love/Belonging is the third most important factor for the average person. According to this you need Love/Belonging to achieve good self-esteem and eventually to self-actualize.


Hope this helps.
