Positive relationships, regardless of type, duration or age at which they appear, promote self-improvement and self-growth. One way of self-improvement is through the adoption of a role model. In a positive relationship people also learn to adopt the behavior of others and their way of life and their values. Through a positive relationship, one better understands him/herself. There is a process in which one learns him/herself through the eyes of the other and this process pushes him/her forward. There are a lot of feelings of mutual admiration and appreciation for each other.
