That's why open and emotionally mature communication makes relationships so much healthier! It's not that there aren't expectations from any relationship; rather the nature of the expectations is important. Knowing who we are deeply, what is acceptable to us and what's not, what we need from the other party (not to fix us, not to make us happy) and expressing it clearly sets the tone for a nurturing and fulfilling relationship no matter it's kind! Of course, it takes two to danse! 🤗
