The article presents an overview of the research of the phenomenon of authentic relationships in foreign works. The philosophical understanding of the authenticity of the personality (authenticity, loyalty to the true self) is presented, the possible connection between the authenticity of the personality and the quality of interpersonal relationships is substant-i ated. A separate part of the article is the discussion of studies of authentic (close) relationships. It is pointed out that it is impossible to consider the authenticity of a person without taking into account its effects on human relationships. The spheres in which authenticity can manifest itself are described: romantic, professional, child-parent, friendly relations. The emphasis is placed on the description of authentic leadership (as the most studied area) and romantic relationships (an area for which authenticity is a particularly important predictor). The article presents several psychotherapeutic methods to achieve them, and also describes some of the risks associated with authentic relationships. Since the authenticity of rela- tionships contributes to effective interaction in the personal and professional sphere, there is a need to study and develop development technologies, necessary both for the authenticity of the individual and the authenticity of the relationship.
