Abstract: This study explored how perceived romantic relationship support and conflict influenced self-esteem and life satisfaction. We surveyed 913 participants and found that both support and conflict were independently associated with well-being outcomes. Perceived support was linked to higher self-esteem and life satisfaction while conflict was associated with lower well-being.
