WHAT DOES A HEALTHY RELATIONSHIP LOOK LIKE?

Discussion Think about a positive relationship in your life that is not romantic: üWhat do you like about him/her? üHow does the person treat you? üHow do you feel when you are with the person? üWhy do you feel this relationship works?

Healthy Relationships • Being Honest • Treat their partner with respect and fairness • Paying attention to partner when friends are around, valuing his/her opinion • Support and encourage each other • Never hurt their partner physically or sexually • Have shared interests, but also have separate interests and identities • Enjoy being with each other • Try hard to have honest and clear communication
