Healthy relationships allow both connection and freedom. Here’s how to keep the balance:

  1. Have your own hobbies: Keep personal interests alive.
  2. Support your partner’s growth: Encourage their goals and passions.
  3. Set boundaries: Respect each other’s space.
  4. Communicate needs: Be clear about what helps you feel fulfilled.
  5. Celebrate time together: Make shared time special, not obligatory.

Independence nurtures love—not weakens it.
