They engage in additional kind of loose relationships with other neighboring hydrogen and oxygen atoms.

These loose, somewhat fleeting relationships are called hydrogen bonds.

In ice, 100% of O and H atoms are involved in hydrogen bonding.
H

The most energetically favorable spatial arrangement of these bonds actually pushes the water molecules apart a bit, resulting in the volume of ice being 10% larger than the volume of water, which is really weird for solids and liquids.

hydrogen bonds are also why taking a warm bath is so great, why steam engines change the world, and why temperatures on our planet are so constant when compared to other cosmic temperature fluctuations.

It takes a lot of energy to change the temperature of water because each little temperature change is associated with breaking or forming lots of hydrogen bonds.
