RAD template

Start your Relationship Agreement Document.

The RAD Template is for couples who want to make assumptions visible and talk about their relationship with more care, honesty, and choice.

It is not meant to lock your relationship into rigid rules. It is a living structure for better conversations about needs, boundaries, expectations, repair, and the agreements you want to keep revisiting together.

Why use it?

Most relationship agreements already exist.

They are just usually invisible. They live in assumptions, habits, old stories, and the things nobody has named out loud yet.

A RAD helps you put those agreements where both people can see them, question them, and choose what actually fits.

It is especially useful when you care about each other but keep running into unclear expectations, recurring tension, or conversations that never quite get finished.

What is inside

A practical structure for meaningful conversations.

The template gives you prompts and sections that help turn vague relationship friction into clearer, more workable conversations.

Sections for practical agreements and emotional care

A structure couples can revisit as the relationship changes

Starting points for honest conversations that are easy to postpone

How to use it

A living structure, not a finished answer.

The useful part is not filling every section perfectly. The useful part is creating a shared place where important conversations can become more specific, more honest, and easier to revisit.

  • Make invisible assumptions easier to discuss
  • Treat agreements as living choices, not fixed rules
  • Return to the document when the relationship changes
  • Use structure to support honesty, care, and repair
