Healthy Relationships




Are you in a healthy relationship?

Relationships involving control, fear, and lack of mutual respect are due to fail.
Many partners in abusive relationships may be depending on another partner's
income, or is just afraid of being on their own, or may be thinking the relationship
is "better than nothing."
In the long run, however, an abusive relationship damages your self-esteem and
stops you moving ahead to continue looking for that right relationship thats just
around the corner as Reba McKintyres song says...

Do you feel good about yourself and your partner?

Are you comfortable and enjoy being around each other?
Are you both able to express you feelings and needs freely?

What are the 5 signs of a Health Relationship?

The feeling of Safety- Freedom to make choices without arguments and
fear. Of course these should not be choices that are in any way a hindrance
to your relationship

Share Honesty- The freedom of expression and resolving disputes honsty
without hiding your real feelings

Full Acceptance - Understanding each Others faults without trying to change
them. If you have to fix someone they are not your ideal partner

Self Respect- Setting Limits is a good sign of self-respect and understanding
every individual has a right to his or her opinions.

Enjoyment within each other- The energized and full feelings of being alive in
your partner presence. The sharing of the tiime you have together in a positive and
fun way

Are you in an Abusive situation?

The main signs of an abusive relationship include intimidation, name-calling,
blaming, belittling, guilt-tripping, jealous questioning, and outright violence.
If you're in an abusive relationship and deep down you know that you'd be better
off without the relationship but are afraid to leave it- Think Smart...

You may think you have no options, but you almost certainly do.
A social worker and/or counsellor can help you map out a strategy for leaving an
abusive relationship and getting your own life back on track.
Your doctor or local/regional sexual clinic can steer you toward appropriate
counselling services.
You may be amazed at the strengths in a friend you though did not care or acted
like they were better than you.

Too many missing people. Too many BAD relationships. Too many errors in judgement. If the infomation on this site prevents 1 mistake it has accomplished something.
