🪷 Components of healthy relationships
🪷Equality, symmetry
Healthy relationships are only possible between people who see each other as equals. Both partners must equally make efforts so that both feel comfortable.
🪷 Trust and intimacy
Relationships should have a sense of safety and acceptance. This feeling should be supported by the partner's behavior, who provides support in difficult situations.
🪷Boundaries and the adult self-concept
Despite trust, intimacy, and acceptance, one must not forget their own interests and needs. And the ability to talk about them!
🪷Respect and acceptance
One should respect not only their own boundaries, but also the partner's boundaries.
🪷Vulnerability
In harmonious relationships, partners can show vulnerability to each other. This means that one can openly reveal themselves, and the other side will provide safety and understanding.
🪷 If all these components are present in your relationship, you can say that the relationship is harmonious.
