Look for a Potential Partner with Same Interests
Unless you have spent a long time with your would-be life partner, it is a little difficult to understand his/her nature, temperament and interests. If your relationship bloomed on the foundation of friendship or you have worked together at some point, understanding each other becomes easier. When you connect with each other through a third party, say a common friend or a matrimonial website, it is essential to present an honest picture about yourself.
Your online portfolio must reflect what you are. Similarly, if some relatives or friends are helping you find your partner; let them know the qualities you would love to see in your partner. Be frank and honest about your likes and dislikes and of course, your own weaknesses too.
Choose someone who shares much of the common interests with you. This will work in your favour. Not all your likes and dislikes really have to be same but some ideally should be. It will help you have things you would love to do together.
Is Your Potential Partner Trustworthy?
In spite of the communication revolution and the information overload which we face in daily lives, it is still difficult to figure out whether your potential partner is trustworthy. This does not mean you need to hire a detective agency. Rather, spend more time together and communicate with each other to get to know the person better.
Nowadays, the social media profiles of your partner can also give you important clues. Check out the friends’ lists, the kind of posts he/she has made or shared, and the type of comments received from friends. All these will give you indications about the person’s interests, language and the company he/she keeps.
Remember, trust is the foundation of a healthy and happy marital relationship. When you trust each other, you love to share responsibilities and stay assured of support in positive as well as tough situations.
Expect Less, Give More
Illogical expectations lead to disappointment. Make sure your own gestures and behaviour make your partner feel comfortable and at ease with you. Expecting the other person to cater to all your wishes, whims and fancies will not help you cement your relationship. Give the respect he/she deserves, the attention he/she needs, the care he/she would love. You will be surprised to find the same reciprocated many times more.
Avoid Haste
Marriage is a well thought out decision. Simply dating and chatting for a couple of months do not mean your relationship is on solid ground and ready for the final vows. Give your relationship time to mature and flourish. Give yourselves time to understand each other. Most importantly, let your friendship become stronger and secure. A marriage based on friendship strikes deep, firm roots and allows love to bloom and bind you together with each other.
These few tips are essential mantras for helping you choose your life partner with a mature, sensitive and thoughtful perspective. As the German philosopher and poet Friedrich Nietzsche said, “It is not a lack of love, but a lack of friendship that makes unhappy marriages.”
