You actually like each other

It sounds like a no-brainer, but happy couples are truly in love with each other.

“There should be an awareness that this is your best friend, the person you like, love, and with whom you want to share your life,” says Antonia Hall, MA, a psychologist, and relationship expert.

“In a good, solid relationship both people encourage and bring out the best in each other.”

You respect each other

You can’t build a healthy, solid relationship if you don’t respect your partner. Without mutual respect, you can’t have trust, honesty, friendship, or intimacy.

“Mutual respect is one of the core relationship partner needs, and it’s something that is often looked over in the dating process,” says Laurel House, a dating and empowerment coach on E!’s Famously Single.

He is the first person you want to call when you have good news—or bad

You know you have a solid relationship when the first person you want to tell good or bad news is your partner. You got a huge promotion at your job and the first person you want to call and tell the good news is your significant other. He’s the first person you want to share everything that happens in your life and there’s no one on this Earth you would wanna call at that moment. If something bad happens, he/ she’s still the first person you wanna talk to, and you prefer their company more than anyone else’s.

“Look at the favorites in your phone,” says Brooke Wise, founder of Wise Matchmaking.

“When he or she gets to number one, that’s a pretty good sign. It doesn’t happen overnight, but when it does, consciously or unconsciously, things are going quite well.”
