Are You Dating The Right Person? How To Know Based on Your Behavior Around Them

It’s scary to give your heart away. When you do, you’re committing to someone who you don’t know that well yet. That’s why so many people take the time to get to know someone before they even ask them out. There are so many questions that go through your mind when you’re looking for your ideal match. Do I match with this person? Will I be able to spend the rest of my life with them? But dating isn’t just about finding your soulmate. It’s about getting to know someone, testing the waters, and making sure that you’re compatible with them before you take the next step. So how can you tell if you’re dating the right person? Check out these five telltale signs that you’re dating the right person.

You’re Completely Comfortable Around Them

This may be the most obvious sign, but it’s important to remember. You can tell if someone is the right one for you if you’re completely comfortable in their presence. Does your stomach feel butterflies in it when you see them? Do you have a smile on your face? These are all signs that you may be dating the right person. If you’re not 100% comfortable around them, it may be a red flag. You want to feel like you can be yourself around them. If you can’t do that, then you may want to reconsider your feelings for them.

Can Have An Honest Conversation With Them

This is a very important sign to look for. If you can have an honest conversation with this person, then you may be dating the right person. And that’s because honesty is the key to a healthy relationship. If you two can be open with each other and talk about anything, then you’ve found your match. 

You want to have the ability to share every version of yourself. Not just the pretty parts, but also the things that you shy away from. No one knows us better than ourselves. Yet, if you lie about who you are because you fear what your partner may think, how will the relationship progress?

Renewing trust in a relationship built on lies is not any easy fix like a Renewal by Andersen. Be open because not everyone gets second chances. 

They Make You Feel Confident

This may seem like a weird one, but don’t ignore it. You want to feel confident around someone, right? Because confidence is one of those traits that is attractive in a person. If you can feel confident around your partner, this is a good sign. Identify how you feel in your skin when they are around you. 

Let your partner know what you may be insecure about. Bottomline, insecurities are part of our journey, but the confidence a partner may give you will take you by surprise. 

You Both Have The Same Core Values

As you may have guessed, this is a bit related to the previous one. If you and this person have the same core values, then that’s a good sign. It shows that you may be dating the right person.  If you don’t have the same core values, then that may be a red flag. It may be a sign that you’re dating the wrong person. It may be a sign that you just have to move along. Another fish in the pond may be a better fit. 

You Are Not Alone

This one is self-explanatory. If someone is always there for you, it shows that they care for you. It shows that they’re dating the right person. If they’re not always there for you, it may be a red flag. It may be a sign that you’re dating the wrong person. It may be a sign that you need to reconsider your feelings for them. 

You’re Looking For More Than Just Physical Chemistry

Chemistry is a big deal in dating, but it’s only one part of the puzzle. Chemistry is great, but you can have chemistry with someone who isn’t the right person for you. Physical attraction plays a factor in our relationship, but it is rendered obsolete when other problems arise. You become more selective as you age.

Beauty is fleeting. What remains is respect, honesty, genuine affection, and like-mindedness.

You Find Yourself Being A Better Person

This is by far the most important sign. If someone is making you a better person, you’re probably dating the right person. Now, do not get confused here. Being a good person starts with you. You have the choice to be kind, honest, and all the wonderful things that make the world a better place. Before even thinking about the word “dating”, you should work on yourself to strive for this ideal. 

But, finding a person, a partner, that makes this task easier is rare. If your partner challenges you to be charitable, considerate, and warm, they are a real keeper. 

Maybe you’re dating the wrong person. It may be a sign that you need to rethink your relationship with that person.

You’re Smart Enough To Know When Things Aren’t Right

Now that you know these signs, it will make dating a bit easier. Proceed with caution, though. The rules of the dating world are ever changing. 

Nonetheless, if you’re dating the right person, then you should be able to tell when things aren’t right. Whether it’s your partner telling you that they want to spend the rest of their life with you or if it’s someone who’s respectful of your boundaries, you should be able to tell. If you don’t know when something isn’t right, then you might not be dating the right person.  The biggest sign that you’re dating the right person is that you’re happy. If you’re dating someone who makes you feel uncomfortable, you should know that you’re probably dating the wrong person. If you’re dating the right person and you’re not happy, then you might want to take a look at your dating habits.  

You’ll know who to spend time with, who to avoid, and who to let into your life.  Now that you know these signs, you can start dating with confidence and ease. You’ll know who you want to date, who you want to go out with, and who you want to take home.

Happy dating!
