They were wed in 2375, but seven years later, Zhou and Ibrahim's differing career paths and life choices took a toll on their marriage. They subsequently separated in 2382. They tried to make things work again a few years later when Ibrahim, having earned her doctorate, took a position at the University of Betazed as a research professor to be close to Zhou. By 2387, however, they were in the midst of lengthy divorce proceedings. This latest development was abruptly halted at their final divorce hearing, and the two ultimately reunited at [[Deep Space 17]] in March 2388. | ||

:Zhou met Ivanova in 2384 while she was stationed on Betazed as an ensign. The two formed a close friendship, with her playful personality being a nice foil to Zhou's tendency to overthink and take things too seriously, especially in the wake of the separation with his wife. Ivanova is one of the few people with whom Zhou—or "Spot" as she likes to call him—feels able to truly relax and show his sillier side, and it was her enthusiasm that partly inspired Zhou to then join Starfleet himself after he completed his post-graduate training. The two kept in touch after Zhou left Betazed, and by 2387, Ivanova also returned to space upon her reassignment to the USS ''Pioneer''. She was promoted to lieutenant junior grade later that year. | :Zhou met Ivanova in 2384 while she was stationed on Betazed as an ensign.

:Zhou had initially reacted with contempt upon Shelley's arrival, feeling that one of the patients she had beamed aboard was taking resources away from the overwhelmed ''Independence'' medical staff. The two soon realized, however, that they were more alike than not, with similar views on Starfleet and medical priorities, especially after Zhou expressed his frustration at being told to attend a staff meeting when so many injured crewmen still needed medical attention. Later during [[Operation Bright Star]], Shelley, who had suffered her own tragedies, helped Zhou confront his doubts about his abilities to serve his shipmates, especially in the wake of Jessop's death. | :Zhou had initially reacted with contempt upon Shelley's arrival, feeling that one of the patients she had beamed aboard was taking resources away from the overwhelmed ''Independence'' medical staff.

:Greeting him with a smile after he stepped onto the bridge, Ehlanii was the first member of the senior staff to welcome Zhou when he reported for duty. She was also the first person to speak with him in a more casual setting in the ship's lounge. Ehlanii stands out to Zhou as not only a genuinely warm and caring person but also as a command officer who remains upbeat and encouraging to the rest of the crew as they continually face new challenges. When he began to have doubts about his choice to join Starfleet, Zhou turned to Ehlanii first for her thoughts before he made a final decision on whether to resign.

:Though the Tan symbiont already had the lifetime memories of a previous host, its current host Alleran was a young man in his late 20s. Tan quickly fell in love with his new commanding officer [[Riley, Sidney|Sidney Riley]]. Though they had met briefly at Zhou's promotion ceremony in sickbay, Tan did not interact with Zhou again until Riley suffered severe injuries from [[Operation Bright Star]]. Tan and Zhou clashed over Tan's insistence on being with Riley while she underwent surgery. Ironically, Tan, unaware of Zhou's physiological limitations, had initially wanted to designate Zhou as the next host for the Tan symbiont before their confrontation. Still, the two eventually began to form a friendship, with Zhou seeing much of his younger self in the spirited pilot. Unfortunately, when Tan and Riley's intense relationship ran aground during her recovery, Tan felt he could no longer remain onboard. Before he left the ''Independence'' he wrote letters to his fellow officers, including Zhou: | :Though the Tan symbiont already had the lifetime memories of a previous host, its current host Alleran was a young man in his late 20s.
