7. You have different levels of emotional intelligence
According to Bergstein, your emotional intelligence also needs to line up if you want your relationship to work. Emotional intelligence can be seen in the way you handle an argument, your listening skills, how you apologize when you’ve made a mistake, and so on.
If you can’t find some common ground, you’ll probably not be able to understand the other person, which will eventually lead to a lot of arguments and frustration.

8. You see life in a different way
If you’re an optimist and you always want to see the best in people, it can be very frustrating to date a pessimist, who’s constantly waiting for something to go wrong. Plus, these types of people can drain you and constantly put you in a bad mood.
According to Bergstein, it’s important how you handle the not-so-great situations. For instance, if your car breaks down and you see it as a minor inconvenience while your partner has a major breakdown, chances are the relationship will likely fail.
