Despite what romantic
comedies would have you believe-there is no magic answer to finding the perfect
mate. Discovering if someone is the right one for you usually takes some time.
Although we may wish to act solely on instinct-which can be helpful
in determining if he is the right one-it is important to give it time before
reaching that final decision.
While there is no
set-in-stone policy for finding love, there are 3 signs you can use to
determine if he is the one.
Sign #1 He Is the Right One
- You Respect One Another
When it comes to figuring
out if he is the right one, respect should be at the top of the list. Respect
is also something that should go both ways. He should respect you and you
should respect him, in turn.
You can tell he respects you
when:
- He is willing to compromise
- He listens to your concerns and feelings
- He notices when something is wrong and asks you about it
- He values your opinion
- He appreciates you
He is genuinely happy for
you when you succeed
All of this must be done by
keeping 2 important things in your mind. First, no one is perfect. If you are
looking for Mr. Perfect, you might as well stop looking and recognize that
perfection simply doesn't exist. With that in mind, know that you don't have to
just "settle" for "good enough." You want to have the
confidence of knowing that he is not someone you have simply settled for
but he is the right one for you.
Sign #2 He Is the Right One
- You Share the Same Values
What do you value most? What
values make up the life you have chosen to live? These are important questions
to ask yourself, as they will help determine if he is the right one for you.
Values are usually in-line with those non-negotiable items that will give you a
clue as to whether or not he is the right one. If you don't share the same
values, consider that to be a red flag.
Whether your instincts are
saying he is or isn't the one, it's an important consideration. Many times our
instincts are right. Of course, our best instincts can be wrong and someone can
present themselves to be something that they are not. This is why intuition is
only one sign to consider in determining if he is the right one for you.
Sign #3 He Is the Right One
- You Can Be Yourself With Him
You will not be appreciated
or valued by a man who tries to change you or who cannot love you, flaws and
all. So if you can be who you are when you are with him, he might just be the
right one for you. This means he not only accepts the good in you, but also
your weaknesses and faults. When you can be yourself, you will experience a
sense of freedom. You will have confidence in knowing that he accepts you
just as you are.
When taking these 3 signs
into consideration, you will have a good idea if he is actually the right guy
for you.
