Q. What are the differences between a healthy and unhealthy relationship

In a healthy relationship, both partners respect each other’s boundaries, communicate openly, and support one another. There’s mutual trust, equality, and independence. In contrast, an unhealthy relationship often involves control, manipulation, or emotional abuse. One partner may dominate or belittle the other, ignoring their feelings and needs. Communication is poor, and trust is lacking. You might feel trapped, anxious, or constantly walking on eggshells. Key differences include: mutual respect vs control, open communication vs secrecy, and equality vs imbalance. If you’re unsure about your relationship, ask yourself: do I feel valued, heard, and safe?
