relationships
A relationship is a close friendship between two people, especially one involving romantic feelings:

Relationship can be used in two other ways. It can describe two things and the way in which they are connected:

Relations

Relation also describes the link between people, groups or countries and the way they behave towards each other. In this sense there is very little difference between relations and relationship. For instance, we could also say:
8 A0 m, t, Y9 j% `2 v' L! n
Relations between (the leaders of) the two countries have never been closer.
Most of the differences are context specific in this sense. For example, we talk about diplomatic relations and race relations, not diplomatic relationships or race relationships:

Diplomatic relations between the two countries were broken off over this incident and their ambassadors were sent home.

The need to improve race relations in Inner London boroughs is of paramount importance.

Your relations are also members of your family:

Your blood relations are the people who are related to you by birth, not through marriage. If you say that they are your own flesh and blood, you are emphasizing that they are members of your own family:

He's my own flesh and blood. I can't leave him to fend for himself when he needs my help.

When two or more things are related, there is some kind of connection between them. When people are related, they are members of the same family:
