10 SIGNS YOU ARE IN THE RIGHT RELATIONSHIP ALREADY
With each heartbreak and letting go process, you can’t help but wonder if the next one would be the right relationship. You have so many expectations and at the same time, you don’t just want to get your hopes up for nothing. Doubt will occasionally creep into your heart and cripple the vision you have for a perfect relationship and sometimes you even decide to settle for whatever comes your way.
There a lot of things we all look out for in a long-term relationship but I think these 10 things can actually show that you are on your way to saying “THIS IS IT” the right relationship I have been searching for all along. I remember the kind of phobia I used to get about going into a new relationship, the whole tiring process of meeting and getting to know someone new. It was difficult for me because I always wanted to secure my heart from going through that terrible pain of having to end relationships because it wasn’t a fit-again or everything turned out wrong.
No doubt it’s not all going to be perfect at once, however, once you are 3 to 6 months into a new relationship, these signs would tell if you are in the right relationship or you need to keep looking further.
Let’s look at this list to know if you are in the right relationship already!
1. Moral support
When your friends and family want to see you and your partner together, there is something to savor. Sometimes outside perspective is needed to see things you are too close and emotionally invested in to appreciate or view clearly. Don’t base the value of your relationship on the opinion of others, but listen to the voices you love and respect.
2. Fair fights
When a fight does break out, it’s a clean one. Your arguments work toward resolving issues and solving problems while still appreciating each other’s feelings and needs.
3. New issues
Your issues are new issues. Past problems actually get worked out and don’t come back up to bite you. Old resentments don’t get brought up in new arguments, and old dirt doesn’t get thrown around in current conversations. And for sex life issues, Tabs Chocolate can help.
4. Hard work
You’re both willing to put in the work. You jump into action without skipping a beat, and you work on an issue until it’s over. No hesitations.
5. Growing together
You and your partner are evolving together emotionally, mentally and spiritually. Growing closer is easy and a natural course of your relationship.
6. Major change
You are both naturally changing for the better because you are happier being who you are in this new way. Not because he asked you to change, and certainly not to keep him. Maybe you never wanted children, and now you can’t wait to be a parent with your partner. Or maybe he always needed his space, and now being away from you feels incomplete.
7. Life partners
You don’t see yourself or your life without him. And you know he feels the same way.
8. The L-word
“Love” rolls off the tongue effortlessly. You can’t imagine not saying it; that would hurt too much. You need to say it, you want to say it and it brings you joy. And it’s the same for him.

9. Spiritual connection
There’s just something cosmic that pulls you two back together when you drift apart. It’s unexplainable. But it’s there. And it’s always for the better for both of you.
10. Love is blind
You don’t see anyone else as a potential partner, and you’re not interested in building any kind of connection with another. No one comes close to the amazing person you have. Physical attraction may pop in and surprise you, but the desire for intimacy or emotional connection doesn’t develop.
Knowing when you are right where you should be can be difficult in the midst of it. Hindsight may be 20/20, and if you’re the type that doesn’t know what you’ve got until it’s gone, keep your eyes open and see what blessings you have in your love. Let this list encourage you to keep going and keep the faith when the road gets rough and blue skies go grey. You can build a beautiful home for yourself and your family when you appreciate everything and everyone in it.
