Relationships
Relationships are a part of healthy living and can provide great benefits to our lives. Everyone deserves to be in a safe and healthy relationship.
There are factors that can make a sexual relationship healthy and enjoyable or unhealthy and possibly unsafe. Respect is the foundation for a healthy sexual relationship. It is a commitment to communicating and acting with integrity. In a healthy sexual relationship, both partners are able to express their feelings and respect each others' needs and boundaries about sex.
