Respect forms the basis of a healthy relationship. Mutual respect for the partners is one of the building blocks of a space where two individuals can grow individually and together. However, with time, we often forget to show the way we respect our partners. In her recent Instagram post, Psychotherapist Emily H Sanders referred to this and wrote, “It’s no surprise that respect is an important part of a healthy relationship. While all relationships have challenging seasons, it’s important to maintain respect throughout these times.” (Unsplash)
