There is no good in pretending that you're in a healthy relationship when you are actually not.  If you are in a toxic relationship then not only will your relationship be affected but your personal life will also be affected by it. A toxic relationship brings negative energy and most people don't even realize that they are in a toxic relationship.

As compared to a toxic relationship, a healthy relationship is not only beneficial for you and your partner but also has impacts on your daily life and it helps you progress and move forward in life. A healthy relationship is what everyone desires but can't have.

With that being said, here are some signs to determine that you are in a healthy relationship:

You express yourself freely

When you are in a happy relationship then you would notice that you and your partner both are expressing each other freely. Relationships thrive when both partners speak their minds and express their feelings freely and honestly. There shouldn't be any topic that is off-topic and hard for you guys to discuss.

You have your own space

Just because you are in a relationship does not mean that you will have to spend every moment together. Although you can spend a lot of time together, a sign of a healthy relationship is that both the partners have their own space, so they can also pursue their interests and friendships. It is a sign of a healthy relationship that you don't push the other person too much and give them their space.

You communicate with each other

Communication is the key to every relationship and if you and your partner are good while communicating with each other then it is a sign that your relationship is going well. If you are in a long-distance relationship then communication is even more vital. Video Calling with your partner, having frequent chats, and sending Good Morning & Good Night texts to each other is a sign of a healthy relationship.

You don't call all the shots

When you are in a relationship then both you and your partner make the decisions jointly, there is no boss around who calls the shots, neither you nor your partner. If both you and your partners make the decisions jointly then it is another sign that your relationship is going well.

You treat each other with kindness

One of the biggest signs of a healthy relationship is that you are treating your significant other with love, care, consideration, empathy, and appreciation and your partner is also doing the same. If both you and your partner are treating each other well, giving respect to each other, and showing love & care in everything then your relationship is definitely a healthy one.

You trust each other

Whoever you may ask, relationships are always built on trust and if that is missing in a relationship then there is no point in having a relationship at all. Whether you are living together, living separately, or working out a long-distance relationship, trust is vital. If you and your partner are trusting each other with everything then your relationship is growing well.

You talk with your partner

Whenever you are having any sort of problems or concerns then it is important that you talk to your partner instead of talking to other people. Your partner is like your best friend and whenever you are having any sort of problems.

You like yourself and your partner as you are

Healthy Relationships are based on reality and if you don't like yourself or your partner as you are then it means that something is quite not right. If you are looking to change yourself or asking your partner to change then it is not right. No one is perfect, neither you nor your partner and it is a sign of a healthy relationship to accept yourselves for who you are.
