Friendship
The social tab in your menu shows your current relationship with each villager Each person shows a row of 10 hearts indicating your relationship with them. If you're married, your spouse will have 12 hearts instead.
The hearts will fill up or decrease over time as you talk to people and gift them. You can give each person up to 2 gifts per week, as indicated by the checkboxes to the right of their entry in the social tab. Each heart represents 250 friendship points. Speaking to a villager gives 20 points once per day, while ignoring them for a day gives -2 points, so don't ignore your friends!
Each villager has their own individual likes/dislikes. The more they like a gift, the more invisible points you will get towards filling in a heart. Be careful, as gifting someone something they hate can also cause hearts to go down.
Below are lists of items that are universally loved or hated. Note that there ARE some exceptions and that individual villager tastes override any universal tastes.
