Summary/Abstract: In the area of applied ethics a separate chapter is dedicated to the report between morality and personal relationships. Are they in conflict or not, so that you can not be morally up to the end when it comes to people with whom you have a personal experience? Morality is a universally valid standard of behaviour or, in fact, there are several levels of morality or even more types of morality. The paper analyses this conflict by taking into account a short episode of Plato's dialogues and then by comparison with more recent contributions to this subject. There is, therefore, a philosophical, biological and philosophical perspective, and finally the way in which today's neuroscience can further clarify this dispute.
