Partners in healthy relationships typically talk about the things going on in their lives: successes, failures, and everything in between.
Trust involves honesty and integrity. You don’t keep secrets from each other. When you’re apart, you don’t worry about them pursuing other people.
Interdependence means you rely on each other for mutual support but still maintain your identity as a unique individual.
It also involves realism. You see them for who they truly are and care about that person, not an idealized version of them.
Recognize the need for personal space and time on your own. Maybe you spend this time relaxing solo, pursuing a hobby, or seeing friends or family.
It’s important to make time for fun and spontaneity when the mood is right. If you can joke and laugh together, that’s a good sign.
