The Giving Tree

What kind of relationship do the tree and the boy seem to have? Are they friends? Do they have a romantic relationship? Are they like siblings? Is there another human relationship that the boy and the tree seem to mirror?

The boy and the tree's relationship is like a friendship. The relationship between the two is one-sided, and the boy depends upon the tree for unconditional love.... a mother/ child relationship.
