I want to split this into two sections, I think it will give us a good idea as to how our relationships are. You can post your responses below or keep them to yourself but if you answer YES to any of the questions you should really talk to someone about it.
I'd like to first start with How are you being treated. Next will be How are you treating your partner.
I think healthy relationships are very important so I hope this can help. I know alot of teens are in denial while in relationships and have to learn the hard way but Im hoping this can help now before its too late.
If you want help in your relationship then post your answers to the following questions in this thread and we will help you.
