I attended a singles seminar with Debra Fileta, who is a relationships blogger and counselor. She talked through some hard truths, but also what it means to be a healthy person to have healthy relationships. Here are a few things she said: •Healthy people equal healthy relationships •Set boundaries as a single person way before marriage •Be two whole people who don’t need each other, but rather choose to be with each other •Choose someone who will get better with time •Give and take, learn to communicate your feelings, interdependence •Be spiritually equal, anything of value is worth protecting Relationships are hard.
