Hi

This month, we're taking a closer look at comfortable pace, one of the 10 signs of a healthy relationship, and sharing some updates on our summer programming.

In the very beginning of a relationship, it’s normal to want to spend a lot of time together. It’s called the “honeymoon” phase of a relationship — and it's fun and exciting! But when does spending all your time together go from feeling right, to feeling like too much?

Comfortable pace can be an overlooked Healthy Sign of a Relationship. It means a relationship moves at a speed that feels enjoyable for each person. In a healthy relationship, you’re not rushed or pressured in a way that makes you feel overwhelmed or uneasy (i.e. like being pushed to make things official or moving in together before you're ready).

A few things to remember:

It’s important to listen to your gut instinct when something doesn’t feel right — and communicate that to your partner, and if necessary and friend and/or trusted adult.

Value your needs over what society tells you a person should have or how a relationship should work. You deserve a relationship that you enjoy and makes you feel good!

There is a difference between feeling excited about someone and feeling smothered by them OR, in the opposite direction, feeling neglected by them.

What does a comfortable pace look like during the pandemic? It means giving each other the time, patience, and space to adjust to a “new normal” (including yourself!).
