10 Questions To Ask About Your Relationship When You Want To Know If Your Partner Truly Loves You

1. Are you with someone who puts your needs before his or her own on things that are really important to you? Everyone wants what they want, when they want it. However, when you love someone, you need to compromise and, at times, choose to put his or her needs before your own.

2. Are you with someone who provides stability in the relationship and is willing to discuss the future, how you will live it together and both of your hopes and dreams? It’s important to be with someone who isn’t on the month to month plan, but who, instead, has an eye on the future and the life that you can build together. It’s unsettling to be with someone who doesn’t have his/her eye on the future because you are always on edge, thinking that on any given day, the relationship could change.

3. Are you with someone who is proud of you, impressed by you and thinks you’re great? It’s important to be with someone who is your biggest cheerleader; after all, if your partner doesn’t think you’re really terrific, who else is going to?

4. Are you with someone who shares your sadness when you are unhappy and wants to help you feel better? Life is not always easy and has a lot of ups and downs. You need to be with someone who knows that special way to get you out of your funk and can help you work through your upset.

5. Are you with someone who is patient with you, especially with the little things, because love for you keeps him or her from getting irritated with you? At times everyone can be a little difficult, but if somebody loves you, they need to be able to see beyond that and be patient with you.

6. Are you with someone who gets amused by you, instead of upset, when you do something silly? We all do things that we think are ‘normal’ but other people might not; your partner needs to support your silly even if he/she has a different brand of it.

7. Are you with someone who makes little gestures when you least expect it just because he or she wants to see you happy and smile? Happiness is one of the key ingredients in life. It should be of utmost importance to your partner that you are happy regularly.

8. Are you with someone who expresses how he or she feels and gives you positive affirmations everyday? People tend to feel better about themselves when someone in their lives regularly reminds them how great they are and lets them know that they are loved. Your partner should be that person for you.

9. Are you with someone who comes up with fun things to do together, but who is open to doing anything with you, just so you can spend time together? It’s common that two people in a relationship might not necessarily have all the same interests and hobbies. However, if you enjoy each other’s company, you should want to spend time together regardless of what you’re doing or where it is.

10. Are you with someone who considers you his or her best friend? Everyone has friends with whom they are close and with whom they share secrets and concerns. However, at the end of the day, your significant other is the person you are building your life with so he/she needs to be your main confidante and ultimately needs to be your person.
