What Does A Healthy Relationship Look Like?

3 Keys On Making A Healthy Relationship

The foundation of a healthy relationship includes:
  • Boundaries:You and your partner are able to find ways to meet each other’s’ needs in ways that you both feel comfortable with. And, with boundaries should come respect. Respect is crucial to relational health. But you can’t respect others unless you respect yourself. You can admire someone if you don’t respect yourself. You can envy them. You can crave their attention. But you can never truly respect them. The reason? The degree to which you don’t respect yourself is the degree to which you will be unable to transmit to anyone else something as pure and steady as respect. It’s that painful, that simple, that true.
  • Communication:You and your partner can share your feelings, even when you don’t agree, in a way that makes the other person feel safe, heard, and not judged. Also let the other person have freedom to be their self. If you’re in a relationship where you don’t feel free to be and explore every possible dimension of yourself, stop and question why. Is it because you aren’t comfortable fully exploring yourself, or is it because you feel the other person would not be comfortable with you being yourself. If it’s the former, trust that God will always love and support you — especially if you’re seeking to make more of yourself or to more creatively or fully express yourself. If the reason you hesitate to be free expressing and being yourself is that you sense doing so would in some way upset the person with whom you’re in relationship, talk to that person about it. Share with them.Chances are, you’ll be surprised by how open the person is to your being open with them. Sharing your uniqueness is one of the best ways to show that person how much you care about and trust them. It’s a very tangible way of putting your love into action. Don’t be afraid to be you. And invite the people in your life to be the persons God created them to be.
  • Trust:
  • Building trust can take time and allows couples to be vulnerable with one another knowing that they can rely on the other person. Honesty is important in the trust factor. Be honest in everything you do,and insist on honesty from anyone with whom you share a relationship. This cannot be compromised or worked around. Honesty is to a relationship what mortar is to a brick house; without it, you simply can’t build. With it? The sky’s the limit.


             Work on these, look for these to identify a healthy or an unhealthy relationship today.
