Relationship Checkup
Relationship CheckupHow does your relationship rate?
by Jennifer Good

Do you know how well your relationship is doing? Leave no doubts by completing this relationship checkup together. First list your response to the particular area of the relationship that is being graded, then list your partners. Finish the complete check up, then talk about your ratings with each other.

Remember, this is a tool to help promote awareness about your relationship. You need to be able to be honest with each other about your feelings. This is definitely not a time to be overly sensitive or defensive about what your partner may say about you.
