No matter how smitten you are with your partner, doubt may creep into your mind, clouding your vision of a perfect match. So how do you really know if this relationship is right for you? Here are a few ways to find out:
1. Moral support
When your friends and family want to see you and your partner together, there is something to savor. Sometimes outside perspective is needed to see things clearly. Don’t base the value of your relationship on the opinion of others, but listen to the voices you love and respect.
2. Fair fights
When a fight does break out, it’s a clean one. Your arguments work toward resolving issues and solving problems while still appreciating each other’s feelings and needs.
3. Hard work
You’re both willing to put in the work. You jump into action without skipping a beat, and you work on an issue until it’s over. No hesitations.
4. Growing together
You and your partner are evolving together emotionally, mentally and spiritually. Growing closer is easy and a natural course of your relationship.
5. Change for the better
You are both naturally changing for the better because you are happier being who you are this new way. Not because he asked you to change, and certainly not to keep him. Maybe you never wanted children, and now you can’t wait to be a parent with your partner. Or maybe he always needed his space, and now being away from you feels incomplete.
6. Power of togetherness
You don’t see yourself or your life without him. And you know he feels the same way.
7. The L-word
“Love” rolls off the tongue effortlessly. You can’t imagine not saying it; that would hurt too much. You need to say it, you want to say it and it brings you joy. And it’s the same for him.
8. Spiritual connection
There’s just something that pulls you two back together whenever you drift apart. It’s unexplainable. But it’s there. And it’s always for the better for both of you.
9. Understanding
It is the major pillar in your relationship which connects you both. When your partner is upset or feeling low, you should know how to pamper them, distract them or make them happy.
10. Power of love
You don’t see anyone else as potential as your own partner, and you’re not interested in building any kind of connection with another. Therefore, no one has the audacity to come close to you. Physical attraction may pop in and surprise you, but the desire for intimacy or emotional connection doesn’t develop, the only thing that you have with your partner.
