Human Rights in Intimate Relationship

Breaking out my therapy worksheets tonight.

The right to grow and explore your potential without feeling guilty or selfish

The right to have friendships with both men and women

The right to express your opinions and have them give them the same respect as those of others

The right to have your emotional, physical, and intellectual needs to be as important as the needs of others

The right to expect others to give at least 50% to resolve difficulties in your relationship

The right to expect others to be responsible for their behaviors rather than assuming responsibility yourself

The right to seek professional help

The right never to be physically attacked or psychologically abused by others

The right to expect significant behavioral changes rather than apologies and promises from others

The right to not blame yourself if the relationship in which you have invested so much love and effort ends
