Grey’s Anatomy is one of the few shows that offers something for just about anyone, but one of my favorite dynamics that is offered is that of true, lasting relationships. Even though the iconic concept of finding your person was coined by Christina Yang and Meredith Grey, every character on the show has a person of their own, and I honestly feel that if you are going to take anything away from the show, this would be the concept that I personally endorse. (Sorry, McDreamy, relationships come first!) The greatest thing about this concept is that literally anyone can be your person! Kind of like people can be your spirit animals. (Shout out to my own spirit animal, JLaw!) Your person can be your childhood best friend or someone you met a week ago and instantly clicked with. And there are no set qualities that your person must have because we are all different and all need different things, but for the purpose of this article and in honor of the return of my own person, who is basically my personal Christina Yang, here is my list of indicators that you may have found your person.
