The term for people with whom we have primary relationships and those in our primary groups is "significant others." This term is used in sociology to describe the individuals who have the most influence on our attitudes, beliefs, and behaviors. It can include family members, close friends, romantic partners, and even co-workers or classmates with whom we share a strong bond.
