Characteristics of a Healthy Relationship Checklist (3)
o Respect Caring partners are aware of each otherÕs boundaries, need for personal
space and vulnerabilities. They do not take each other or their relationship for
granted. This is evident through respecting each otherÕs decisions or choices and
listening to explanations of why those decisions were made.
o Consensual Enjoyable Intimacy The sexual experience in a relationship should
be equitable, mutually agreed upon and enjoyed. Both parties should feel free to
express their needs and boundaries and have them respected, so that one person
does not end up feeling like they have to give in to the other. If one person does
not want to have sex, their wishes must be respected.
o Trust There is openness, both partners have good listening skills and know their
confidences will be respected. Jealousy does not run out of control. There are no
control over issues such as friends and how time is spent.
o Support Partners in good relationships continually offer each other
encouragement, comfort and acceptance through good times and bad. Healthy
relationships are give and take situations, not one-way streets. Couples in healthy
relationships are committed to bringing out the best in each other and have the
otherÕs best interests at heart. There is equity in the sharing of various
responsibilities.
o Easygoing The overall tone of the relationship is relaxed. Both parties can laugh
at themselves without humour being at the other personÕs expense. Both parties
will feel comfortable communicating their thoughts, feelings, likes, dislikes and
ideas (e.g., where to go on a date, world issues, status of the relationship).
