What is the definition of health relationships?

There may be no precise definition of health relationships, but at least there are some determinants that, if absent, are in an unhealthy relationship.

The first of these determinants is mutual giving. This does not mean that things are equal, but there is always mutual giving and taking between the two parties. When there is a party that gives the length of time and the other takes time, we have an unhealthy relationship that will not last.

And the only relationships allowed to be a party that gives along and another side along with the relationship with children; children depend on adults to meet all their needs, but adults, although it is acceptable to rely on each other in some things; but the reciprocity always exists, It is important that all things be agreed.

• In health relationships there is rapprochement, mutual respect, communication, emotional support, presence, honesty and trust. These apply to all relationships, but they are the first among the partners of life.

• In the emotional relationships between the partners of life, each party in the relationship feels connected and supported, but it also enjoys independence. There is a balance between the needs of the relationship and the needs of each party. There are spaces for sharing interests and activities together, and there is space for each side of the relationship alone with Family or friends or even alone, and there is no ideal ratio, it is important that things be mutually agreed between the partners of life.

• It is important to mention that we are affected by the patterns of relationships we have seen in our childhood, and that we tend to repeat these patterns - unconsciously - however unhealthy; which negatively affects our current relations, and we will not be able to get out of the family of this past only with awareness and foresight.

* Important keys to a healthy marital relationship
