Relationship Assessment
Good communication is important for all successful relationships.
When communication breaks down, so do many other aspects of
a relationship. The problem is, communication rarely breaks down
overnight. It is a subtle wearing away that is oftentimes difficult to
see happening. Gauging your communication and understanding
some of your patterns together is a very helpful way to begin
assessing the state of your relationship.

Respond with "true" or "false" to the following statements. When
finished, compare your score to the assessment scale below.
