Healthy Couple Relationships

What is a healthy couple relationship?

    To me you need commitment, trust, honesty, show affection, and caring in a healthy couple relationship. My relationship with my husband, I trust him, I am honest with him, I care for him, we show affection though holding hands or hugging, and we have commitment. 

     My husband and I have been complimented on our relationship. Our friends say we are so good together and we had a compliment from a stranger. We were our eating at Perkins and my husband and I were talking. There was an elderly lady who was sitting a few tables away. She stopped over to our table after she got done eating and asked how long we had been together. We said “6 years, 3 years married out of the 6 years.” She said "wow." Good for you guys for having things to talk about. She said "I have seen other couples who just sit across the table from each other and just look at each other or play on their phones." We were caught off guard and didn't know what to say. We just said “thank you.”

          If you cannot trust someone it will be very hard to be in a relationship with that person. If you are not honest, they cannot trust you. I would not be able to trust someone who lies all the time. I would not be able to know when they are telling the truth if they are ever telling the truth.

          My husband and I show affection every day. We hold hands when we are out and about or when we are at home. We kiss and hug each other before leaving for work. We will kiss good night before going to bed.

          My husband and I are not perfect. We need to work on so much in our relationship.
