A good partner is always one whom you're comfortable and compatible with. So from the go you look out for signs on how comfortable you are with each other. Do you feel at ease when he or she is around? Can you be yourself around them? Do you like to be goofy? Can you be goofy with them? Are they tge judgy type? etc. </p><p>The other thing is compatibility. Which is another different metric on its own. Like I always say don't look for a partner with whom you have EVERY SINGLE LITTLE thing in common. This would become a very boring and vapid relationship.</p><p>Of course it sort of goes without saying that you shouldn't find a partner with which you have nothing in common either. This would make for a very tumultuous unhealthy affair. But the best relationships are between people who find themselves in the middle way. People who share a lot in common but still complement each other. So that's what you should look out for. A partner who completes you; who makes you whole. </p><p>A partner with which you share the things you love with and also shares with you. A partner who teaches you things you never knew before, who makes you take up new habits and ways of life. One who expands your horizon.</p><p>Another thing to look for in a partner is the communication factor. Is the suitor solitary by nature? Does he or she feel apathetic towards expressing their feelings? Is it that they don't even know just how to? </p><p>Of course it's fine if they are because we are all different. But oral communications is not the only form of communication there is. There are also other forms of communications which includes body languages and telepathic communications. If you can't tell your partner how you feel, show them. Don't hide it. Sometimes your entire relationship will hang on the balance just because of a wrong glance, or a prolonged silence. Which is why you should communicate, even if it's to communicate your lack of communication. It may go a long way!</p><p>Then we have TRUST.</p><p>Trust is the true foundation of any good relationship. And to achieve trust, we must go by no other way than that of honesty; so in choosing a partner choose a partner with pure and complete honesty! </p><p>Lack of honesty in a partner brings about lack of trust and lack of trust there's brings about weak foundations which makes any relationship crumble. A good partner should posses this honesty and trustworthiness, because they will be needed. Only with these can relationship endure trials and challenges that will no doubt happen along the way. </p><p>Just one moment of lie might ruin decades of trust. </p><p>Another thing is to find a partner whom you're comfortable SHARING things with. Like I said, share ideas. Share visions. Expand each other's horizon. Make each other stronger. It is a sign of that compatibility factor mentioned earlier.</p><p>It never really starts off --and probably should never start off--as both of you being extremely perfect for each other in every single way. When this happens there really is no room for improvement and you get tired of each other pretty quickly. But finding someone with the little imperfection that matches your own imperfection and with little flaws that you can improve and also have your own flaws improved by them is a rather important pre requisite for a healthy, long lasting relationship. </p><p>A final thing to look for--which is also a trait that is needed mostly way to achieve all these named above-- is MATURITY and UNDERSTANDING. A mature and understanding partner will not only most probably possess all the above mentioned characteristics, but would also be willing, should they not, to work on themselves and work with you to achieve said goals!</p><p>Hope the answer helps. Cheers.</p>","appDepth":2,"appParentPermlink":"pk88vs8dx","appParentAuthor":"macaronibu","musingAppId":"aU2p3C3a8N","musingAppVersion":"1.1","musingPostType":"answer"}" |
