Are you starting your new life with someone special? And it is too much fun, naa! You like someone and feel a gusto of butterflies in your stomach when you are with someone special. You like to enjoy their company. You always want to talk to them. Your days become dull when you aren’t able to talk with them.

All these signs show You’re in Love and Love is the most beautiful thing in the world.

You like someone and they also feel the same about you. What could be better than that, right? If both of you are in the same boat emotionally then it’s really good, but still, it is crucial to maintain some decorum which is essential in a relationship.

Before taking your relationship one step ahead, you need to know some key points that are mandatory to make a Relationship long-lasting. What do you need to know about your someone special, so you can check by yourself whether he’s good for you or not:

He Wants Change in You

A human being has some qualities and some shortcomings. If your person accepts you for your shortcomings, then that person is completely loyal to you because he likes you just the way you are. No decoration, no adulteration, neither more nor less. They want you as you are.

But if he wants a change in you, then he’s not worth your companionship. You should never feel the need to change yourself to fit their image. If he wants you to change yourself according to him, then it is better to say bye-bye to such a relationship.

He doesn’t Initiate the Dates

You always take the initiative, whether it’s calling, messaging them, or deciding on a first date. And if you always take the initiative, they will get so used to you that they will be less interested in making plans and making efforts. That’s why it is necessary to maintain a relationship that first lets them take the initiative then you can.

He wants Intimacy on the First Date

If he asks you for intimacy or even a kiss on the first date then you should avoid it. The first kiss is special in everyone’s life, especially for a woman. So spend a lot of time with him, after knowing his perspective to see things then you can trust him. But it is a must to avoid intimacy before any commitment.

He Keeps Busy on His Phone

Here you’re talking about many things and his eyes are glued to his phone. He says, my eyes are on my phone but I’m all ears, so carry on and then you start talking mindlessly without even checking whether he’s listening to you or not. The person who uses his mobile phone while in a conversation then he’s not interested in talking to you. The person who likes you always makes eye contact with you. Eyes-to-eye communication is a must in a relationship.

He Doesn't Respect You

He always lets you down in front of others. If you have made a mistake then he laughs at you and makes a mockery of you in front of others. If he always does this then it is better to step out of this toxic relationship. Because this kind of relationship squeezes your self-esteem.

He isn’t Open Minded

If he constantly checks your phone calls, text messages, emails, or DMs then there is a sign he’s not open-minded. He distrusts you always and when you come back from anywhere he asks so many questions to you, so it is not a good sign for you. Before the commitment, think once or twice, about If the relationship will go well or not.

He doesn’t maintain Independence

You are an independent person and you like to spend some quality time with yourself. You like to do something creative or spend time with friends in your “me” time. In my perspective, the desire for some independence in a relationship is a good thing. But what if your partner doesn’t like your independence then he’ll always mess up your quality time which can affect your mental health. So before starting a deep relationship, it is important to discuss independence.

Summing Up

Before stepping into a relationship or commitment, you need to know what you want in your relationship. A healthy relationship is built by two strong individuals who care for each other, love each other, and respect each other.

And a healthy relationship first starts with yourself. Explore things on your own and establish habits that make you happy. And when you feel strong from the inside then only you meet the right person. The more you love yourself the more your partner will love you.
