These 8 Signs Of A Healthy Relationship Are All Shades Of Beautiful

Relationships require an equal amount of effort from both parties involved. In most cases, you wouldn’t really understand what a healthy relationship entails until you are in one. That’s when you realise they’re not as complicated, they’re wholesome, and you find yourself wanting to do things for your partner, and your actions don’t go unnoticed. They’re no rocket science, but, at the same time, they’re not a black-and-white concept either.

There are queues to identify a healthy relationship. They are largely dependent on how fulfilled you feel about it. Women on Reddit are sharing signs of a healthy relationship, and they make sense.

GIPHY

1. “Mutual respect, mutual trust, communication, space for growth for both parts, supportive environment, managing conflict in a constructive way, space for being vulnerable, absence of destructive/abusive behaviours.”

2. “Lack of drama. No playing off of each other and escalating fights. Or if you do work each other up, there is a civil follow up convo within a few days and both parties give unqualified apologies and can discuss what happened.

3. “There is respect and love but each member of the relationship has their own space for themselves.

4. “My skin is better, sleep is better, thoughts are better. I feel supported, loved, desired, respected. I can be myself. I don’t feel like I’m walking on glass. I want to be home with my partner more than I want to be apart.”

5. “When you encounter an issue, you work together to solve it. It’s you and your partner vs the issue, not you vs your partner.”

6. “Your feelings are validated and you can communicate through conflict without demeaning the other.”

7. “When you can be yourself around them, when they are affectionate and you are affectionate back, when you still love each other, but can exist as separate human beings, when you share some hobbies or likes and dislikes, but you have some different ones too; and when you or them (preferably both) show a genuine interest in the other’s new interests.”

8. “You are happy being completely silent around your partner, you shouldn’t need to entertain each other at every moment to stay attached.”
