There are several different types of relationships- family relationships, romantic relationships, friendships, professional relationships and acquaintanceship. In all of them, the common denominator is that they should be mutually respectful, positive, balanced, and healthful.
Relationships can be enjoyable, as with anything else in life, but they can also be difficult, and there is no “one size fits all.” There is no instruction manual to guarantee your relationship will be fine, but surely there are some signs to say if your relationship is good! Whilst studying abroad, it’s so important to ensure the new relationships you build are positive relationships, as your main support network may be quite far away in your home country.
