Starting a new relationship

A new relationship can be wonderful and scary all at the same time. It can raise some serious challenges and questions.

  • What are your expectations for this relationship?
  • Do you and your partner agree about these expectations?
  • What assumptions do you each have about how relationships work, how to treat each other, and what behaviour is acceptable?
  • Do you have a way to sort out your differences that works for you both?

The articles in this section address some of the issues that you may face as you form a new relationship.
