In this day and age, it seems almost impossible to find the ONE. It seems like we find every excuse to not want to be with someone because we are scared or everyone we meet comes with baggage that we just are not ready to welcome with open arms. However, every once in a while, you find someone who just completely takes your breath away and you can tell you've found someone who is going to change your life.
So, how can you tell that you have found your perfect match?
18. You want to spend every moment together.
If you can’t be with each other in person, you are constantly texting, on the phone, or on FaceTime. You just can’t get enough of each other. They are the first person you want to tell everything to, and you want every moment to be with each other. It’s literally impossible for the two of you to get sick of each other. People probably tease you both about how inseparable you are, but after all, you are #relationshipgoals.
17. You have found someone that completes you.
Like two pieces of a puzzle, the two of you just fit together. Your personalities are the perfect mix and where one of you lacks, the other one makes up for. You two are each other’s strength and weakness. The two of you are just in perfect harmony and everyone around you can see it. You never realized a part of you was missing until you met your loved one and felt whole for the first time in your life; you never want to let go of this feeling.
16. You find happiness in their happiness.
You are happiest when you see a smile on your SO’s face. Sometimes, this means doing things you don’t want to do, like dancing for your girl when you hate it, or playing a sport with your man even though you are terrible at it. Whatever the case, you two are willing to do things you normally wouldn’t because you know it makes the other happy. You are willing to put your stubbornness aside to see them smile, even if it’s just for a minute.
15. You have mutual respect for one another and your differences.
You two may have been raised in completely different ways, but that has not kept you from embracing each other’s differences. In fact, your differences make you love and respect each other more. You both are willing to make compromises and learn each other’s ways. The more you learn about each other, the more you love each other; the more you love each other, the more you respect each other. It’s the perfect cycle!
14. Your can do absolutely nothing and have the time of your life.
Any moment together is bound to end up as one of the best days of your life. Something as simple as sitting on a bench in a park people watching could become the best date. The two of you don’t need the riches and wonders of life when you have each other. You can find fun in anything and everything you do, as long as you have each other.
13. Sitting in silence is peaceful.
For the first time in your life, you will probably describe any silences you have as comforting instead of awkward. Sometimes there are no words for a specific situation, but all you need to feel loved and safe is each other’s presence. You don’t need to entertain each other constantly, you love each other when you are a ruckus and you love each other when it’s so quiet you can hear crickets chirping.
12. You have similar goals.
Everything about your lives matches up. You both want the same things out of life. You have similar work goals, similar family goals; you both have the same timeline of when you want to take the next steps in your relationship. Life is just easy for the two of you and you are always on the same page! No need to sync your calendars when you are so in tune with one another.
11. You trust each other 100%.
You have realized this person is so worth the risk of getting hurt because you know that no matter what, they wont break your trust. You feel so safe with this person and you trust that they will never betray you and hurt your soul. You don’t need to snoop on each other. You both know that honesty is the best policy and you are willing to do anything to make sure the trust is never lost in your relationship. The trust of your SO is more important to you than anything and somehow you learned to trust this person more than you trust yourself.
10. You can be yourself around each other.
Let's be real for a second, most of us have a weird, quirky side that we keep hidden because we think anyone who sees this side of you will think you are so bizarre. You keep this side of you hidden from everyone to save yourself from embarrassment. But when you meet the right one, they have a way of making this side of you resurface. You can no longer keep weird you hidden in a closet. You are free to be yourself, and you know that no matter what, they will continue to love this side of you because they find it to be the most adorable and attractive part of you.
9. You are best friends.
Not only are you both head over heels in love, but you are best friends. You know everything about each other, from your most embarrassing moments to your deepest darkest secrets, and you know that they accept you with welcoming arms despite that. You know that you both love each other for purely that nothing could make you stop loving each other. You know what time your boo likes to wake up, fall asleep, take a poop. Sometimes you know way too much about each other, but would you really want it any other way? What is better than to be with someone who knows you better than you know yourself? You two can tell each other anything and everything and know you won't be judged.
8. You are better together.
You are good on your own, but together, you both are invincible. Well, not literally, but you sure do feel like it. You know that with each other by your side, you two can accomplish any goals and dreams that you have set. You push each other to be better in every way possible, and you can really see yourself changing in a positive way. Imagine how great you two will be after just a few years together! Watch out world, there’s a new power couple in town!
7. Your love has no bounds.
Every relationship encounters its struggles. We come across obstacles and set backs; however, together you both are able to conquer anything. Nothing and no one can stand in your way of being together and your future. Distance? No problem. Drama? No problem. Finances? No problem. You both are fully committed to a life together and are willing to brave through even the toughest of storms to be together. Now that’s real love!
6. No matter how long it has been since you have seen each other, nothing has changed.
Whether you are away for work or school, or just have to be away for a little while, when you two are reunited, you can bet nothing has changed. You are just as much in love as the first time you met, and you know that will never change. You can pick up where things left off and there’s no awkwardness. Things are just easy, and you never want to let that person out of your sight again.
5. Your fights are just that, fights.
Let's face it, all couples have their share of disagreements. But when you're with the right person, you’re not scared to have disagreements because you know walking away is not an option for either one of you. You know that no matter how bad your fight is, you both will handle it in a respectful manner, discuss the issue, find a resolution, and move on. There will be no yelling, name-calling, or breaking up. I mean, how long can the two of you stay mad at each other anyways? The answer is probably not more than a few minutes.
4. Your souls met at the perfect time.
Everything in the universe has a time, so inevitably, there is no difference when it comes to finding your soulmate. Lucky for you two, your souls found each other at the perfect time. You both were ready to fall in love and everything in life seems to just be falling in place for you two. You found each other when you least expected it, but you would not change a single thing about how you met. You two have a perfect love story and it most definitely could not have had better timing.
3. You see yourself in each other.
Sometimes you catch each other doing or saying the same thing. Not only do you complete each other but you see yourselves in each other. You laugh at the same jokes, you love the same tv shows, you have the same taste in food and music. Sometimes you even text or call each other at the same time. You guys really are other halves. Two people but just one soul. You just get each other.
2. Home is wherever you are together.
The only time you really feel at home is when you are with each other. If you are far away from each other you two tend to call home any place that you two can be together. You can’t wait to be home with each other. Sometimes home isn’t a place, it’s a person and that truly is the case for you both.
1. When you know, you know.
Oh, the cliché! But you both have come to understand the truth behind the cliché. When the two of you first connected, you felt a warmth take over your soul and something inside of you just let you know that you had just found your soulmate. At the moment, you probably realized that your life was about to change. You would never be alone again. You had just found the one person in the world that you were meant to be with and life was never going to be the same. You both knew that you want to spend your lives together because you never felt so alive and loved in your life before.
