8 signs you’re with the right partner
How do you know if you’ve found the right partner? Lust or loneliness can cloud your judgement, so run through this checklist: eight solid signs your love is made to last.
You trust each other
You may have played games in the beginning, but when you realise you’ve found the right partner you begin to open up and allow yourself to be vulnerable. You tell your secrets. Your lives become entangled. This is a gamble, and it requires trust.
Trust is the glue that holds relationships together. Without it, they fall apart. If you are with the right partner, trust should be the foundation on which your romantic relationship is built.
You communicate
When you’re with someone you really care about, you listen and care about what they have to say – you don’t just wait for your turn to speak. And once you’ve listened you speak, not only with your words but with your actions.
Communication with your partner should feel open, safe, and trusting, not something daunting and to be avoided. You should feel able to approach them any time with a problem, and not be afraid to bring up important issues. You should communicate with each other out of care and concern, not judgment and criticism.
You are honest with each other
Trust is the foundation of any successful relationship, and honesty is the bricks and mortar. Partners in a loving relationship are honest with each other, not just about their past and their actions, but about their feelings and their fears.
You need to feel secure about being honest and secure that your partner is being honest with you.
You Compromise
Every relationship has its occasional disagreements and difficulties – it’s how you respond to such situations that shows whether or not you are a good fit. A steady, loving relationship is in one in which both partners are open to making compromises.
Couples don’t have to like the same thing all the time. From time to time, you will have to do something you aren’t particularly enthusiastic about – from watching a movie that makes you yawn to missing your big night out for your partner’s family event. Another time they’ll do the same for you. Give and take, and willingness to compromise is a sign that you’re in a healthy relationship.
You express your love
Love can be expressed in many ways, from a simple ‘I love you’ to an impromptu back rub at the end of the day. It’s easy to get so caught up in your own life that you forget about your partner’s. Loving couples make an effort to understand whatever it is their partner is going through and make them feel better about it by showing concern.
Perhaps the easiest way to express love is by giving compliments – not false compliments, not white lies, but genuine declarations that make your loved one feel more attractive and appreciated.
You help each other grow
If your partner is considering a career change, you should support them. If your partner is trying to quit smoking, you should be by their side, ready to help. It is hurtful when someone you love takes no interest in your personal struggles.
In a loving couple, you treat each other’s achievements as if they were your own, and inspire each other to become better people. The right partner doesn’t hinder you or drag you down but is supportive and helps you grow.
You make time for each other, and also provide space
No matter how busy you may be, your relationship should remain a major priority in your life. Spending time with your partner shouldn’t feel like a burden, but a pleasure you look forward to.
At the same time, spending too much time with your partner can dull your relationship, and you should never be too dependent on your partner for your own happiness. Instead, allow your partner the time and space they need to explore their own unique passions, and never begrudge them the time they spend with their friends or loved ones. Maintaining a little independence from each other will help your relationship grow strong.
You stick together when times are tough
The right partner will be there beside you, whether times are good or bad. It is one of the best and clearest indicators of the way a person feels to see how they behave when you pass through a difficult situation together. If they’re not there to help you through minor turbulence now, you probably can’t depend on them to be there when times become truly difficult.

Eric,
Eric,
I think the best option would be to try to talk to your parents. You are taking responsibility for your life and your son, and they need to accept that. It might take time, and you may need someone to help you, like a family friend, or family member.

Love comes at its own time. I am in love with a man twice my age,I know people are shocked. He is not a rich man because I know that’s what you all are thinking. For more than three years we’ve been together we’ve never had sex,he is a good person,a kind person,he knows my worth,he is that kind of person who listens,tells you the truth and very realistic. I know he is the right person for me because instead of talking about sex,he is constantly talking about our future,what we will do together,finding me a job,where we will live and making sure that we both comfortable. Don’t stop for less,don’t look for money in people,don’t go for the looks,go for love.

Hi Godwin, sorry that you
Hi Godwin, sorry that you have to hear this but your girl might be unfaithful. She seems not to care about you or your relationship. You need to take time and think about what you want. Decide if this is the relationship you want to be in for the rest of your life.

Hi Samuel,
Hi Samuel,
No one can force you to be in a relationship with them. All you need is to cut off any communication if you feel its a nuisance. Do not lead them on if you are not interested in the relationship. Make it clear that they should keep off and move on with your life.
hi, i really have big problem
hi, i really have big problem, i had or i dont know whether to say i say i have; a girl who just reached a time en told me she has no feelings for me at all, she doesn’t communicate with me, she does even give anything a lover can share with their loved one totally nothing. Recently when she went back home; she was studying en now she is done, she told me that l give her time alone. am the only who call, text or say hi, besides since time immemorial she has never felt proud as iam to maybe make publicly known that we dating, i was the only one who used to do. I really love her en am growing througj hell without her, please help me. Does it mean she has left me for another one? Or is it true that i give her space en she will come back? she also assured me that she isn’t dating anyone. please help am very lonely en stress is made me thin every single day en am worried of my health. Sleepless nghts, weird en hurting dreams about her, en every time i remember what is going i cry over her, i have really cried asking God why this happening to me. please help me.
Hi,
Hi,
Sorry that you are going through this Khaemba.
This maybe difficult to hear but it sounds as though she is not interested. She has already made it clear that she does not have feelings for you and she wants space.
It would be a good idea to take the time off to evaluate yourself and the relationship. You should also consider the fact that the relationship could be over and you might need to move on.
All the best to you.

Hi Job,
Hi Job,
Only time will tell. The whole process of dating is all about finding out about your partner and their feelings towards each other.
Something important to note is that when you get into a relationship with her you also get into a relationship with the child.

Hi Albert, that’s a difficult
Hi Albert, that’s a difficult question to answer. You’ve been together for two years so it means you know a lot about her and its easier for you to judge whether she good for you or not. Take time and think about it and make a decision.
Albert, two years is a long
Albert, two years is a long time. If all the way she’s been like this, then it can be her nature to tell lies but if she started doing it along the way then you are wasting time. She got another man. Run

Hi Jane, it is important you…
Hi Jane, it is important you talk with your partner about spending time together. When partners don’t spend quality time together, they end up growing apart which may cause problems in their relationship. Take time to find out what could be going on, is it their current work schedule or stress, so that together you can agree on how to proceed. You can come up with a plan that will allow for spending time together. Check out this articles;-

Hi Michael, if your partner…
Hi Michael, if your partner is cheating on you and you have talked to her and she refuses to change, you have to make a decision as to whether you are going to accept this or whether it’s to breakup and move on. Take time and think about what you are willing to accept moving forward. If she is unwilling to change it maybe time to break up. Have a look at the following article;- https://lovemattersafrica.com/love-relationships/breaking-up/knowing-when-to-break-up

Dear Charles, so sorry about…
Dear Charles, so sorry about this. Unfortunately, there is not much you can do to make a person love especially if they have made up their minds about breaking up. You could try and find out what exactly has led to this and see if you can together resolve the issues ad get back to have feelings for each other. If she has however made up her about this, you will have to respect her choice. We wish you all the best.

Hi Faith that is a great…
Hi Faith that is a great question! Love presents in different ways. We all have love Languages. These are ways in which we express love for our loved ones. These love languages are Words of Affirmation, Acts of Service, Receiving Gifts, Quality Time, and Physical Touch.
Words of Affirmation are when your partner keeps telling you good things about yourself. Acts of service are when your partner does things for you like cooking and doing laundry. Receiving gifts is when your partner gives you gifts. Quality time is when your partner spends time with you deliberately. And physical touch is when your partner likes to touch you in various ways, even non-sexually.

Hi Joy, thank you for…
Hi Joy, thank you for reaching out and we are sorry you are going through a hard time. It is completely natural to feel a bit betrayed by your friend but all is not lost. Communication is an important part of any relationship. Have an open and honest conversation with your friend. Explain how their actions are affecting you and your friendship. Try not to be confrontational because that would put him on the defensive and the resulting conversation would not be productive. Be ready to listen to his fears and feelings and respond to them as well. Have a wonderful weekend and stay safe!

Hi there,
No matter how…
Hi there,
No matter how busy he may be, your relationship should remain a major priority in his life. If he loves you and enjoys spending time with you, he should spare time to do so. If he does not spare time completely, it may be that he is not interested in being in a relationship with you.
At the same time, it is important to note that if he sets aside time but you feel that it is not enough, you should be a bit empathetic since he could be indeed busy. It is important to enjoy time apart so that you have time to yourself and him to himself.
