B. Like those who reward us and dislike those who punish us.

Explanation:

 Geroge Homans developed the social exchange theory.

This theory explains that the stability and social change is a process of negotiated exchange between people. It proposes that human relationships are based on the cost-benefit inspection and comparison of alternatives.

The human behaviour is driven by cost and reward comparisons, even in relationships. If the risks in a relationship outweigh the benefits then people are more likely to abandon that relationship.
