Relationship: Healthy, Unhealthy, Abusive
| Healthy | Unhealthy | Abusive |
| Good communication | Regular arguments | Gaslighting |
| Enjoying each other’s company | Only spending time with your partner | Controlling who you spend time with |
| Mutual respect and trust | Trust issues on one or both sides | False accusations of cheating |
| Supportive of each other’s goals | Avoiding difficult conversations | Manipulating, lying, then denying it |
| Partners in decision making | Negative comments about life choices | Insulting or degrading comments |
| Improvement of self-esteem | Boundaries are often ignored or crossed | Unpredictable or threatening behaviour |
A good relationship has trust, respect, and open communication. A bad one may involve constant arguments and control. An abusive relationship damages self-worth with manipulation and threats. Know the difference and choose wisely.
