What qualities are important in a mate?

This week you read about intimacy, love, dating, and marriage. Think back over
your teen years. Who taught you about intimacy, relationships, and sexual
health? What was your dating life like? Did you want to get married one day? If
so, what did you imagine it would be like? If you are married now, is marriage
what you expected? Why or why not? What qualities are important in a mate? In
your experience, what makes a healthy relationship? Is intimacy the same as
sex? If you could go back, is there anything you’d do differently?
As you think about those questions, write a letter to you as a teen, giving
relationship advice. Your letter should address at least 4 of the questions above
as well as any other topics you’d like to include. You may share your experiences
as well as material from our readings and any other scholarly sources you find
helpful. Write 250 words.
