Deal Breaker

I presented a workshop at NC State University today to students in a peer education class. We discussed healthy relationships and interpersonal violence.

One of our discussions centered around deal breakers and several students shared what would break the deal for them in an intimate relationship. The deal breakers included: having a different political point of view, believing you are better than other people, cheating, being violent, and many others.

Have you thought about what your deal breakers are? Are you being true to yourself or are you in a relationship with someone who is behaving outside of the behaviors that you find acceptable?
