		<description>Hi Elena,

Great points! Respect is definitely important in asserting yourself in any social situation, especially in relationships. I’m not sure I would use the word “demand” in front of it as some people take that the wrong way and end up coming across as slightly arrogant but the point is still valid.

I definitely agree about knowing yourself and speaking your mind as a healthy equality in a relationship; great points! :)

		<description>This was an especially informative article.  I once heard a quote that said if you don&#039;t want people to walk all over you then demand respect.  Too many people are so worried about impressing the other person at the beginning of the relationship, they lose sight of themselves and then when they reach that comfort level, they go back to their true nature.  The most important thing in going into a new relationship is to know yourself and not be afraid to speak up when you need to if the situation warrants it.  Again, great post.</description>

		<description>I definitely agree with you. The only thing is that if someone does have a weak character, it&#039;s not something they can really change overnight. That&#039;s why I would suggest slowly introducing the characteristics of a strong-willed person into the relationship over time, as that person develops confidence in the situation. To be honest though, someone would only need to do this if they really feel they&#039;re being overrun or controlled by their partner. Some people are actually happy in dominant relationships.
Thanks for your comment. :)

		<description>The only thing I disagree with in this article is that you cannot change the boundaries of a relationship once it&#039;s set on a certain track.  
If you impose change what you will and won&#039;t accept later on in the relationship, that&#039;s fine, as long as your strong enough to do that.  If you are a weak person and do it in a weak way, then you will fail.  But the problem there is not that you didn&#039;t started the relationship off on the wrong track, the problem is that you are a weak person.  

I agree with you, though, that it&#039;s absolutely paramount to have a line of what behaviours you will and won&#039;t accept in a relationship.</description>
