Top 8 Signs You’ve Found Your True Love
You’ve just come across this new person and it seems you’re already in love. Only problem is you’re not 100% certain that this love is real and true. Could this be a short-term romance, a fleeting attraction or just some infatuations? Or is your heart finally at home?
While we believe that every relationship is different, there are certains pointers that can indicate whether or not the love is real. If you’re wondering whether or not you’ve finally found your better half, these eight (8) signs below could prove you right!
1.You’re both ready
Before anything, it’s important to be sure both of you are ready for this.
This is important because it probably wouldn’t even matter if every other sign is positive. Both of you have to be ready for love. It doesn’t make sense that you’re leaving town very soon or they’re moving cities shortly.
Be sure this is not another case of right person wrong time.
Both of you have to be committed to make the relationship work if it actually is true love. This means you, as well as the other person, are not overly committed to your careers, that you are not ready for a relationship or that you or the other person are yet to completely move on from their past relationship. “Both” of you should be ready!
2. They’re the only person you want to flirt with
Perhaps you’ve been searching for the “one” for a while now and suddenly you discovered you’ve stopped searching after meeting this one person. This feeling can oftentimes mean you’re in love.
As singles, people tend to flirt with others, whether subtly or openly.
But the moment you start losing interest in flirting with others and are now only interested in charming this one person, chances are you’ve found your true love. You’ll start feeling like they’re all you need in this whole wide world of 7 billion-plus people. Isn’t that magical?
3. You agree on key issues
If they are your true love, they’ll agree with you on important life issues.
While it’s not expected that they’ll agree with you on everything, it’s expected that you’ll share similar views on important issues such as marriage, kids, and other lifestyle choices and decisions. Your long-term goals, as well as your views on life, must be somehow aligned to a significant extent. Nothing can substitute this, not even having the most attractive personality.
4. You trust them with your secrets and vulnerabilities
We all have our fair share of fears, secrets, and vulnerabilities that we tend to hide from others, in some ways. And even though it’s not always possible to be 100% transparent with these, you’ll have this level of courage and safety to divulge this information to the other person if truly you’re in love.
True love makes it easier to be real with the person you’re in love with.
You’ll be at considerable ease revealing intimate details of your personal life that you’ll hardly reveal to someone else. This stems out of the comfortability and ease that comes with the knowledge that you’re unconditionally loved and that nothing else hardly matters.
5. You both fight fair
No one says you won’t fight or have misunderstandings from time to time, what matters, however, is how you manage those moments.
There is a healthy way to fight and there is a toxic way to argue. Healthy fights and arguments are needed to make your relationship wax stronger. True love doesn’t involve blame games but rather handles conflicts healthily and maturely. So, when small arguments turn to bitter shouts with cuss words being thrown up and down, it most likely is not true love.
6. They respect your opinions
Do they listen eagerly to what you want to say when you’re giving your opinion or do they throw your words back at you as fast as you say them?
True love values and respects your opinions. Anything else is not true.
They won’t try to put you down with hurtful remarks. Neither will they counter your arguments blindly without giving a thought to whatever you have to say. If it’s true love, they won’t try to put you down in front of a friend or coworker. Even when they don’t agree with your opinion, they’ll still be sensitive enough to not make you feel bad.
7. You feel comfortable and at peace around them
One of the things about true love is that it will make you feel comfortable and at peace around that person you love. This peace extends beyond just the physical. You’ll feel this sense of inner calm and ease, just being around them.
We’ll agree true love is magical. If yours is true, you’ll feel secure and at ease around the person you claim to love. However, this is not always the case if it’s a false twin flame as well as in other cases when the love is not really true. In cases like this, it might be difficult to reveal your true self mostly because you’re unsure whether they’d mock or judge you.
8. You feel they’re “the one”
They say the heart knows what it wants. It only makes sense that it’s able to identify it when it finally finds it. This is why you’ll always have a different kind of feeling when you finally find the “one,” because the heart always finds a way to tell you it’s close to home.
This is more about your gut feeling than any other sign.
You’ll probably find things become “intuitively” right once they’re around you. You’ll feel like they’re enough and you just no longer need somebody else. When all of the other signs above click and without question, your heart keeps telling you this is the person for you, it might be best to trust your intuition. Because in the end, the heart truly knows what it wants.
True love is not perfect though
Your true love is not going to be perfect. Being “true,” however, is what matters most. Regardless of the imperfections, the love from both sides should be strong enough to even out the small imperfections.
Finding the “one” is not particularly easy, considering there are at least 7 billion other people who could potentially be the “one.” But the universe just has a way of bringing us close to our one true love when the time is right. The eight (8) signs we highlighted above will go a long way to help you determine whether this new relationship is based on true love or it’s just another fleeting attraction.
