How do you tell if someone is right for you?
How do you tell if someone is right for you?
You feel it maybe? But shouldn't matter as long as you're​ having fun.
But tell me what is "right"
But tell me what is "right"
Posted by magma2Does that ever happen
You don't have any doubt.
I disagree with the 'you just know' theory. How many times did you think you 'just knew' something only for it to turn out that you didn't know at all?
Here's a lot of links below for articles that I found exceptionally useful when trying to figure out the meaning of life, dating, picking/keeping partners, relationships etc.
I also did a list of things and qualities I wanted in a partner prior to rejoining an internet dating site back in Dec 2015. I wanted to be more clear and focused on what I would and would not compromise on, deal breakers etc. For example, taller than me so 5'10 min, non smoker, no kids but also things such as life goals, hobbies, how they interacted with their family. Some things were more superficial than others but my list was a whole A4 page! Not long after I met my now fella. He matched about 95% of that list - spooky! The 'chemistry' that people think they need to look for isn't always the chemistry they require in order to sustain a long term relationship (10 years, 40 years plus), not just physical/sexual chemistry that may only last a few fucks.
I hope any of this helps.

What I was trying to say is, I don't look for love and I am not forcing it. If it happens it happens and if it doesn't, so what? You sound like a woman who needs to have a life partner, no matter what, as long as he matches your standards. Do you even like HIM? 😉

Why judge me at all for reading thought provoking articles that helped to assist me with aspects of focusing on finding a partner?
Have you not read anything about anything before in your life? You just suddenly woke up from your reverie and knew everything?
I posted those articles and shared my own experience as it might help the OP (and others) with her question. It might not but I wanted to share it.
Now you're making further unnecessary judgements and saying that I 'sound like a woman who needs to have a life partner, no matter what, as long as he matches your standards'. Where on earth do you make this bullshit up from?
I wanted to find a man to spend my life with. What is it about that that you find so appalling?
Yes, I love HIM very much. Plus he's a Taurus so he'd kick your donkey arse into next year...
