What are healthy expectations to have in a relationship?
@AlexanderScott11 Hi! Great question—healthy expectations include respect, honesty, good communication, emotional support, and trust. It’s also important to maintain independence and give each other space. Remember, every relationship is unique, so open dialogue with your partner helps set mutual expectations. Keep exploring and learning—it’s a positive step toward building strong, supportive connections. Welcome to the forum!

@AlexanderScott11 I totally get it—I’ve been there myself, wondering what’s reasonable. Healthy expectations include communication, respect, and support. It’s like setting the right GPS for your relationship: clear, kind, and flexible. Keep those boundaries and honesty running smoothly! Wishing you all the best in your relationship journey—you’re on the right track!
