You relate to a character usually by a feeling that the main character has on a topic or an event that the main character goes through.

The usual "Yes, that is exactly how I feel!" feeling means you can relate to the character.

That is how authors form their characters. Authors try to make their characters able to relate to you. That way you can be more drawn into the story, go deeper with the characters, etc.

For example, the well known character Percy Jackson from the series Percy Jackson and the Olympians is very easy to relate to, which is one of the main reasons why the series is a best selling series.

The author formed him into the everyday kid, so every kid could relate to something about Percy.

Percy Jackson feels left out, his parents are separated, he has ADHD, he is dyslexic, he does not know if he will ever be known or loved by someone, he does not think he looks good enough, etc.

Every kid/ teen has these feelings and can relate to Percy's situation, so they read on to figure out how Percy Jackson handles these trials.

But like the answer says at the top, you can usually relate to a character by a similar feeling, hope, event, or wish.
