Why Looking For A Life Partner Is Like Finding A Job, TAKE NOTE!!
This also applies to dating. Know your strong points, what makes you a potential boyfriend, girlfriend, husband or wife. Ask people who know you well about your good and bad qualities. The question then is are you ready to leave the single market.
Choosing a life partner is the most important decision you will ever make – far more crucial than choosing a job, house or group of friends. All the decisions you make will be together, you’ll have to sleep next to them every night and you’ll still have to love them when you’re both old and wrinkly.
So it’s vital to make sure you’re looking for the right things… 17 important qualities to look for in your life partner
#1. A sense of humour: The course of love never did run smoothly, and neither did the course of quitting your job, moving house, having children or dealing with tragedy. Difficult things WILL happen in your life, so it’s important to make sure you have someone to make you smile along the way.
#2. No game-playing: When it comes to choosing a serious partner who’s going to be there forever, you should be past the games of who texted first and wondering if they actually like you. The right person will put their cards on the table, even if it means risking getting hurt.
#3. A strong friendship: When the first few exciting dates are over, and you’re comfortable enough to be in your pyjamas together eating crinkly chips, having a solid friendship to rely on is everything.
#4. Reliability: Life is hard enough without worrying about whether someone is going to show up or call when they say they will – a reliable, solid partner will never leave you wondering where you stand.
#5. Romance: Sure, every day can’t be Valentine’s Day, but the occasional bunch of flowers, meal out or even peck on the cheek can make all the difference in the world to a lasting relationship – and never forget why you got together in the first place.
#6. Sεxμal attraction: This is what drives most couples together in the first place – and even after you’ve seen each other pee, watched each other cry at The Notebook and had a few too many pizzas on the sofa together, it is crucial to keep the spark alive and make time for sεx.
#7. A sense of fun: Even though mundane things like shopping at Ikea can be tortuous and insipid, having the right partner to go with can transform the dullest of tasks into an afternoon of laughter and new private jokes to laugh about.
#8. Shared values: Whether you’re in agreement about how many kids you want, where you want to live or simply that you just both love a big bowl of pasta, having important things in common can help you to build a solid ground for your future together.
#9. They get on with your family: Never forget that your family have your back more than anyone else, so they can sniff out a bad partner from a mile away. If they approve of yours, everything in your life should be ten times easier.
#10. Being hardworking: Someone’s willingness to stay at the office late and impress their boss rather than going to the pub with all the interns means they’ve got their priorities straight – and they won’t be the one playing Playstation in a few years’ time while you’re slaving away at work. You’ll be building a home together on equal grounds.
#11. They make time for you: Of course, seeing friends and family is really important, but spending alone time together is vital too.
#12. They really like you: It’s not only about loving you. They have to like you, too, even when you’re being a moody git, even when you’d rather watch TV than listen to their story from the weekend, even when you’re angry with them and have said some things you’ll probably regret later.
#13. Being able to forgive and forget: Love isn’t all about kissing, cuddling and spooning – you’ll have arguments, too. But knowing how to come back from them and make up with each other is just as important as trying not to get into them in the first place.
#14. Being honest: You need to know when you’re being hard work and when you should be apologizing. Similarly, you need to know what really happened on that stag do. Communication is everything – without it, you don’t have a relationship.
#15. An interest in your life: They don’t cut you off when you talk about how you want that promotion, and they buy your favourite moisturizer for you because they remembered you had run out. Consideration and a genuine interest in your partner’s life can work wonders for keeping your relationship happy.
#16. The ability to talk about the future together: Whether that means marriage next year or moving in together in five years, your partner needs to be able to slot you into their life and include you in their future plans.
#17. You trust them: Whether it’s keeping your secrets for you or knowing they won’t do anything even if they bump into their ex, if you can truly trust someone, make sure you hold onto them forever.
