 What is a Personal Relationship?

The concept of personal relationship is broad and varies from one person to
another. Others may find it unique but others may think of a degree of
connectivity particularly on the emotional aspect.

Personal Relationships, in this context, refer to a close connection between

adolescents, formed by emotional bonds and interactions. The said bonds
grow from and are strengthened by mutual experiences.

Personal relationships are not permanent. They develop and

continually change over time. It derives some benefits from them where we
need skills, information, inspiration, practice and social support.

Creating Healthy Relationship

Healthy relationships are enjoyable, respectful and provide opportunities for many
positive experiences that affect self-esteem. Teenagers can develop healthy
relationships with anyone, including family, friends, and special someone. It takes
time, energy, and care to develop positive and healthy relationships.
Relationships made during the teenage years can become very special and may
form an important part of life.
All healthy relationships between two partners are characterized by
communication, respect, sharing, and trust. They are based on the belief that both
partners are equal and that decision making is shared equally.
