Relationship Advice: 6 Signs You’ve Found Someone You Shouldn’t Let Go
6 Signs You’ve Found Someone You Shouldn’t Let Go. When I was about 8 years old, I found an interesting test in a children’s magazine about how well you know your parents. I remember running to my dad with it: we had to answer the same questions and then compare the answers.
I remember being very surprised at how little I knew about my parents, but what struck me most was the answer to one question: “Who is your father’s best friend?”
For some reason, I wrote my uncle, with whom my dad worked. Dad was surprised and asked why I decided that. “Because you are both men and work in the same place,” I answered naively. “Well, we are friends, but my best friend is your mom.” I was shocked. Honestly.
Somehow, I didn’t expect this at all. It was only when I grew up that I realized this. And since then, this has become the most important criterion for my future husband: first and foremost, he must be my best friend. 6 Signs You’ve Found Someone You Shouldn’t Let Go:
1. When something happens in your life, good or bad, he is the first person you want to tell about it.
For me, that person has always been my mother, and although she remains one of my closest friends, she has been pushed aside a little by my husband. When I do well at work, I can’t wait until the evening to tell my husband about it. When I learn something bad and need to share it with someone, I always confide in my husband.
2. He always comes first for me in my free time.
Of course, I have friends and I love spending time with them. But if I had to choose who to spend time with: him or my friend, 9 times out of 10 I would choose him. I believe that’s how it should be.
I love him more than anything in the world, and I would never sacrifice a sleepover with him for a girls’ night out with my girlfriends. I might make an exception, but my priorities speak for themselves: he is the one and only. I always have fun with him.
3. We can be silly together.
It’s absolutely devastating to be in a relationship where there’s no fun. My husband and I still have tickle fights, or we can roll with laughter at a stupid joke. We dance in the kitchen to Britney Spears, cook dinner together, and run barefoot in the rain.
4. When I feel bad, I go to him.
All I need in difficult moments is for him to hug me and for me to cry on his shoulder. I know that I can seem pathetic to him, I can tell him all the stupid reasons for my tears, but he will still love me.
5. He knows me even better than I know myself .
He never asks what I want for my birthday or New Year. He listens to me so attentively and remembers so well what I said once or twice that he does exactly what I wanted.
6. He is all I need.
When I picture myself with gray hair, crooked legs, and a flabby neck, I see myself laughing next to him, just as old and wrinkled. We’ll still tickle each other, dance in the kitchen, and walk barefoot in the rain.
