"Key factors of an intimate relationship include knowledge, interdependence, care, trust, responsiveness, mutuality, and commitment."
When forming deep, intimate relationships with a partner, it's important to feel safe sharing our deepest dreams, desires, fears, past histories, traumas, and goals for the future.
Interdependence requires some degree of being dependent upon one another wherein each partner influences the other meaningfully, frequently, and vastly.
Genuine, selfless care is another hallmark of healthy intimate relationships, while trust is the confidence that we place in a partner to act in a way that will not cause us purposeful harm. Trust is a top characteristic when most people are asked to define what they want in a partner, and for good reason!
