What is a healthy relationship?
A healthy relationship is where both people feel safe, happy, and respected. It’s a relationship where you can be yourself and feel comfortable to share your thoughts and feelings openly.
Here’s what a healthy relationship should include:
Good Communication
You both feel like you can talk about things openly, without feeling judged.
Respect
You both respect each other’s boundaries, feelings, and choices. This means you shouldn’t feel pressured to do anything that you don’t want too, and you don’t feel uncomfortable or humiliated by the other person.
Trust
Both people trust each other to be honest, faithful, and loyal. You don’t keep secrets or lie to each other.
Equality
You are both equals in the relationships. Nobody should have power over the other person or be forced into doing something they don’t want too.
Being in a relationship can be an exciting time and should make you feel happy, not uncomfortable, scared, or worried.
