Interpersonal refers to something involving, or occurring among several people. Interpersonal communication is an exchange of information between two or more people, and it seeks to understand how humans use verbal and nonverbal cues to accomplish a number of personal and relational goals. Interpersonal communication can take place in face-to-face settings, as well as through platforms such as social media. Interpersonal relationships describe social associations, connections, or affiliations between two or more persons, and they thrive on equitable and reciprocal compromises.
