Recognizing an Unhealthy Relationship
By Julie Lizotte
Recognizing that we may be in a relationship that is not in our best interest can be a difficult process, but a necessary one if we hope to change our situation. Everyone has a right to be in a loving, safe and stable relationship. As women, we must reassure ourselves that we are worthy of giving and receiving love and having a truly healthy partnership. When you believe you are worthy of a healthy relationship, you can then care for and appreciate yourself.
The news is not all bad. Sometimes, just assessing the relationship and talking to your partner or seeking professional counseling to work through some issues can go a long way to improve the quality of the partnership. The important thing to remember is you have a choice. The choices we make can directly improve the quality of our lives and our well-being.
The South Shore Women’s Resource Center (SSWRC), located in Plymouth, wants to start a dialogue with other women to explore relationship issues. The Center is offering interactive and supportive empowerment discussion groups Tuesdays through Fridays, mornings and evenings, to explore women’s issues and relationships. The groups are free, open to the public and confidential. Discussion groups are available throughout Plymouth County. Please call the South Shore Women’s Resource Center at 888-746-2664 for more information.
