How healthy is your relationship?

Thu 11 Mar 2010 In: Community View at NDHA

In a healthy relationship, people feel loved, trusted, respected and safe. A new booklet about Kiwi same-sex coupling gives tips for healthy relationships – and advice on what to do if things go wrong. Produced by ex-Outline NZ manager Lesley Belcham working with a network of LGBT health professionals, the booklet - called You, Me, Us - acknowledges that every relationship is different, and gives general hints on resolving conflicts, what to do about communication breakdowns, identifying abuse, why people stay in abusive relationships, and practical advice on how to leave an abusive situation. "A healthy loving relationship has a balance of passion, intimacy and commitment" - Dee    Matt Akersten - 11th March 2010
