❤️ Day 2: Write down your top 5 relationship non-negotiables.. These should focus on your needs in a relationship. Examples might include faith, age, life goals, and personality traits that help you feel safe, seen, understood, and valued. Some personality qualities to consider are kindness, empathy, gentleness, emotional maturity, honesty, and being non-judgmental. It can also be helpful to reflect on past relationships and friendships. Ask yourself: What qualities helped me feel connected, supported, and at peace? What was missing? Often, those experiences provide important clues about your non-negotiables. I believe God places certain people in our lives not only for companionship but also for growth and self-discovery. Every relationship can teach us something about ourselves and what we truly need in a future spouse. Taking time to reflect on these experiences is an important part of discerning your non-negotiables and preparing for a healthy, Christ-centered relationship.
