Relationships

People with high relational well-being have satisfying and balanced relationships with themselves, other individuals, and society as a whole. They are able to empathize with and respect diverse others while simultaneously asserting their own needs and opinions. They have a capacity for intimacy while also being able to find and enjoy time alone. These individuals also have a good social support network that they feel comfortable leaning on in times of difficulty.
