Some of the signs of a healthy teenage relationship are easy. Someone is not afraid to have an opinion. Someone doesn't have to go to a show with you if they don't want. You don't have to go out with someone's friends. You can stay home. You don't have to text back.
I think some of the positive things about a healthy relationship is that, no matter what, I'm always supported. If something doesn't work out, if I do say "no," it's okay. Another sign is if there is something important going on and they want to see me. They take an interest in me. They want to see me be successful. The are interested in me separate from the relationship.
A healthy relationship really comes down to, what are you as an individual in that relationship and are you supported by your partner.
