What is respect? It’s pretty easy to just throw the word out there as in, I want some of that. But what exactly is it?

In my humble opinion…

Respect is… acknowledgement and intrinsic understanding of worth (both yourself and the other person)
Respect is… knowing that your relationship is a safe place to express and listen without getting cut down or belittled
Respect is… honoring a given boundary
Respect is… talking about someone just like you would talk to them
Respect is… building each other up instead of tearing each other down
Respect is… honoring the other person’s opinion as much as your own
Respect is… being able to admit when you are wrong
Respect is… sacrificing something you WANT for what the other person NEEDS
Respect is… treating the other person’s friends and family with consideration
Respect is… giving each other the space and support to follow dreams
Respect is… hearing one another out without interrupting
Respect is… taking someone’s feelings into consideration
Respect is… agreeing to disagree
Respect is… not raising your voice or being nasty during a disagreement
Respect is… keeping an open mind
Respect is… loving yourself
Respect is… direct, open and honest communication
Respect is… not pressuring the other person
Respect is… friendship
Respect is… trusting the other person’s decision making ability
