It’s true. Finding true love is really hard these days…
But sometimes in life, the stars align in your favor, and when you least expect it you come across a person. You meet this wonderful human being who unlike every other person in your life, sees you. They see you for who you truly are and they accept you. Your soul immediately connects with their and you feel like you know this person from a long time ago…
And who knows. Maybe you do…
Here are 5 signs that you’ve found a keeper:
1. They support you. Not only do they support your career and your choices, but they also support all of your crazy ideas and your goals. It is because they believe in you. No matter what you choose to do, they trust you to always make the right decision. They are aware of how much you are capable of. They know your potential. They know both your strengths and your weaknesses.
2. They make you laugh. It may not seem like the most important thing in a relationship, but you’ll be surprised how much value good humor adds to a relationship. If a person, more importantly a partner can make you laugh until your stomach hearts, they can make you do anything. There is something truly intimate about sharing a laugh with a loved one. There is something truly extraordinary about having the same sense of humor.
3. They know your flaws but love you anyway. If you have a person beside you who accepts you with all of your flaws and imperfections, you are the luckiest person alive. You’ve found yourself a person worth keeping. I hope you know that.
4. They are willing to work through anything. It’s easy to run away from a problem and avoid talking about your issues. It is easy to pretend like nothing is happening. It is much harder to face the uncomfortable truth and realize that it will take more than a smile and a kiss to work things out. If your partner is willing to do anything to work through the tough stuff, consider yourself blessed.
5. They inspire you to be your best self. It is really not about them, but about you. About how they make you feel when you are around them. It is about what kind of person you become when you are in their presence. What kind of person you aspire to be. If your partner inspires you to reach your potential, to work on yourself, to be kind to others, or in a nutshell to just be a better person, you’ve found a person that’s worth keeping.
