Building Healthy Relationships

What are healthy dating relationships? Learn about stages of a healthy relationship and healthy dating and relationship tips.

Do you have healthy relationships? Are you single and trying to date?

Dating kind of sucks sometimes.

Sure it can be fun at times. But most people I talk to who are single and trying to find suitable people to date feel that it is a lot of work.

There is a lot of pressure. If you are looking for a partner that you want to eventually spend more and more time with it is important that you are able to find healthy relationships with like minded people.

Sometimes you have to kiss a lot of frogs and froglets before finding your prince or princess.

Stages of a Healthy Relationship

A lot of us who are single have seen commercials on TV for various dating sites and the people look so happy.

Well of course this is what they are going to promote.

They want you to think that all dating relationships become healthy love relationships.

It just ain't that easy. Online dating can work but only a select few have success with finding healthy dating relationships using the online dating method.

If you take a look at any relationships you have you will find healthy relationship stages.

• excitement
• infatuation
• romance
• commitment

So what makes a relationship healthy anyway?

This will depend on the people involved but there may be some characteristics of healthy relationships.

Building Healthy Relationships

So what makes for a healthy relationship?

Here are some common characteristics of healthy relationships:

• honesty
• open communication
• trust
• respect
• teamwork/sharing of responsibilities
• being emotionally available

Dating should not be hard. It really should be fun. A key to healthy dating is to be yourself and have a good time.

I hate it when I read about rules for dating or rules for healthy relationships.

There are no rules. Everyone has a past. We all have fears and hang ups and issues that we are dealing with.

Having healthy dating relationships is very possible.

Just relax, be open, honest and have fun.

Now get out there and start dating. You just never know who you may meet!
