Trust and Honesty in Relationships

Work through this at your own pace

Why We Track Progress

Healthy relationships are built on honesty, reliability, and respect. When trust is strong, friendships and family connections grow deeper and safer. Tracking your progress helps you notice how honest, dependable, and respectful you are with others—and how much you value those same qualities in return.

Total Score: ______________

Scoring and Interpretation

  • 40–50 points: You’re demonstrating strong honesty and dependability—your relationships are likely growing in mutual trust and respect.
  • 25–39 points: You’re learning to be more open and reliable—keep practicing honesty, even in small daily interactions.
  • 10–24 points: Trust or communication may still be fragile. Work with your counselor on honesty habits and rebuilding broken trust with others.

Applying What You’ve Learned

Trust takes time to build but can be lost in a moment. Every time you tell the truth, keep a promise, or admit a mistake, you strengthen your integrity and deepen your relationships. Tracking your progress helps you see that honesty isn’t just about words—it’s about reliability, respect, and the kind of person you choose to be every day.
