Week 10    June 7th

Calendar: Weekend check-in.

When in a relationship you can at times forget about YOURSELF. It’s important to not give up on your own interests, friends….etc.

Let’s look at the 12-video clips and discuss how this may apply in your life. 

There are endless “check-lists” to see if you’re in a healthy relationship. It is a good thing to once in a while to really think about your relationship. To assess and identify if there are any red flags….or perhaps celebrate that you have a very compatible partner.
