Relationship Rights and Responsibilities

Sometimes it is hard to know what is OK and what is not. Or we can point out what we need, but don't acknowledge the needs of our partner. Take a look at our list of rights and responsibilities. Let us know if you agree or have something to add.

Each Partner has the Right...

* To express their own feelings and opinions, whether or not their partner agrees.

* To be themselves.

*  To make decisions about themselves for themselves and to have equal decision-making power in the relationship.

*  To say ‘no’ to any physical act that makes them uncomfortable at any time.

*  To refuse a date at any time.

*  To make and maintain friendships with whomever they choose.

*  To participate in activities without their partner.

*  To control their own money and possessions.

*  To live free from fear and abuse.

*  To end the relationship when they d
esire.
Each Partner has the Responsibility...

*  To treat their partner with respect, equality, and honesty.

*  To encourage their partner’s dreams and individuality.

*  To never humiliate or put down their partner.

*  To respect their partner’s decisions- even if you don’t agree.

*  To respect and understand that their partner has the right to say ‘no’ at any point and any time regardless of previous consent.

*  To solve problems calmly and equally.

*  To accept responsibility for their own actions.

*  To be willing to apologize as well as accept apologies. 

*  To never pressure, control, or manipulate their partner.

*  To never emotionally, sexually, or physically hurt their partner.

*  To never threaten or harm their partner or themselves in a way to hurt or contr
ol their partner.
