Healthy & Unhealthy Relationships
In healthy relationships
:
Partners have an open line of communication and talk freely about their problems.
They are respectful of what each other has to say and value each other for who they are.
They are honest and can develop and maintain trust, but they are able to keep personal things to themselves.
Both partners have a say in how things go in the relationship and make decisions together, especially those regarding sex.
Healthy couples spend time together, but also enjoy spending time apart.
In unhealthy relationships
:
Partners have trouble communicating and often fight when they try to talk about problems.
Partners are disrespectful to each other, untrusting of each other and often tell lies.
Couples sometimes feel crowded or notice that they are spending all of their time with each other.
Partners may pressure each other into having sex.
An important note — unhealthy relationships are NOT necessarily abusive.
In abusive relationships
:
The abusive partner communicates in a way that is hurtful or insulting.
They aim to have power and control over their partner.
Abusive partners may force their partner to engage in sexual behaviors.Slide4

stalking.
