4 Questions That Can Tell You If Your Partner Is a Perfect Match with Matthew Hussey and Lewis Howes

[@22SeaJay]

1. Love your partner the way they need to be loved. 2. Be your own person/work on yourself 3. Learn how to be vulnerable, but without dumping on our partners. 4. Be a genuine team. Support their goals. Check your ego.

Ok. What if they don't want to be in a committed relationship, their emotionally unavailable, is a narcissist & just want it to be casual & nothing more. They're afraid of getting hurt again from their past traumas but yet they still want to have a partner or love in their life.

Yet, many relationships fail without sex.. You cannot go on despite all the sex, it s a friend lship.... Many people are compatible but also sexy ally ... Sex makes90%when you don't do it, your relationship is over.... Period. Im 40. I talk for experience...

Marten Dekker thank you for correcting... it means you actually read it 😉

[@cluelessangel5292]

In my view, it's actually 5 stages that lead to a relationship: 1. Admiration 2. Connection 3. PERCEIVED Compatibility (without this filter, I believe noone steps into a healthy relationship, especially not long term. At this stage, you don't onow each other long enough yet to know if you are ACTUALLY the right match for each other for life. You basically make a calculated risk.) 4. Commitment 5. ACTUAL Compatibility (At this final stage, you have already been with each other for a while and know BY EXPERIENCE that the other one is your match.) What do you think?

Came here to write the exact same thing. Why get into a committed relationship with somebody if you haven't tested it for compatibility?

[@enchanteddryad6500]

I'd like to add these things as very important parts of a perfect match: 1. Do we feed off of each other, or do we feed each other. (parasitic vs. nurturing) 2. Can we laugh together (do we have the same idea of what is funny, what is hurtful) 3. Do we state our boundaries clearly and uphold them. (can we be honest and can we respect honesty, and do we accept no for an answer) 4. Are we working towards something better together, or are we sedentary? (do we achieve goals together, can we move forward and live life, or are we waiting for life to pass us by) 5. Are we interested in what makes us unique? (Do we not expect them to change, or see them as needing improvement, setting unrealistic expectations or not see or accept where the limits are with them) 6. Are we hostile towards their dreams and enjoyments? Is this an obstacle for the future? (do we not understand their passions, not accept their family, not accept their friends, or have a huge issue with something they do, have done or someone else they have in their life)

The only thing everyone needs is to also change within themselves is their definition of love... Love is not simply a feeling, true love isn't temporary... Often you will hear when someone ends a relationship "Oh, we just fell out of love!", Love is a decision you make every day... Now you may not like that person today, but you still love them.. Showing up when they need you, deciding to love them despite their mistakes.. To put their needs before your own.. Love is an action, it's a decision..

This resonates so much, especially the working together , just because one partner makes more money than the other shouldn't give that person more power and dictate how things go in the relationship. You should work together , and be a team regardless. Took me 6 years to full understand this concept and I am happy being single rather than being with the wrong person,

[@destinedtodevinespiritualc119]

Most people love someone the way they want to be loved, do things for others that are important to themselves so observations of this helps you to understand what they want and need

I have a different definition of vulnerability. Vulnerability isn't about needing someone to fix or reassure. Vulnerability is about being authentic. Owning up to your shit. Taking a risk and telling it how it is. Occasionally I might need reassurance, but then I will ask for that directly. Vulnerability is taking radical responsibility for your life and telling the truth, however unpalatable you fear it may appear.

Do you have people you interview that have been married for at least 40, 50, or 60 years that are successful in their relationships? One thing that I appreciate is hearing from people who have actually walked the walk for years and then can tell you the "secrets" of their success. Sometimes, I feel like people who are single giving relationship advice might have a lot of head knowledge and study on the topic but they have not walked the walk for years.

This spoke to me in regards to my partner, but especially in regards to a recent friendship. They just needed something all the time, and this helped me articulate the problem.

My relationship of 4 years ended today...we were committed in the relationship but no compatibility. When we met we had complete chemistry so he made the mistake of pretending to be everything I wanted to make things work and I made the mistake to listen to his words but ignore his actions. Turned out he hid that he smoked, he had a history of drugs, he loved to hang out and smoke weed and no interest in sex while I am very conservative with my taste and desire intimacy and it just couldn't work out because after awhile we were just roommates. Then resentment built up and we were fighting roommates...everyday!

Great advice unless you are with a covert narcissist, the more you open and are vulnerable, the more you dig a hole. This advice only applies when a couple is “normal” and has no behavior issues.

[@thehorsebackheroine5950]

And how long did it take you to figure out yr with a narcissist? I am not with a narcissist do maybe I am one?

[@thejato]

The thing is, if you can figure out how to be fulfilled in yourself and doing what needs to be done to be a good team mate, you'll realize that the other person isn't doing his part. And you'll also be able to see the red flags pretty quickly because narcissists, covert or not, hate people who don't need others to fulfill them as that's what they use to control others.

[@lisaariottiart]

I henderson lol... yeah, its like wandering into the minotaurs labyrinth.

[@KateLate____]

Don't worry about whether your partner is the label narcissist or not! If they're behaving inappropriately, you need to communicate with them about it. If they're unable or unwilling to change, they're a bad match for you. Matthew says this in another video.

[@Dania.q]

My ex definitely displayed signs of being a covert narcissist a few months after we began dating, and I can tell you they’ll never be the right one. It’s harsh to say, but people who have behaviour issues should probably stay alone or find others with behaviour issues. “Normal” people as you described it shouldn’t have to tolerate a partner with behaviour issues. My advice is to run far far away the second you recognize those behaviour issues from your partner -I’m glad I recognized that there was something off early on.

If they have to carry you emotionally too much or too often, realize also you are putting them into the parent role - and nothing kills sex drive AND a healthy appealing adult relationship as much as falling into some weird parent-child dynamic (instead of two equal adults responsible for their own emotional stabilization practices). Not that you can't ever seek comfort from them, but what pattern is developing over time, and do you actually need to go into therapy instead?

Because compatibility in a sense of "is this something serious, should we get into a relationship?" and in the sense of "is this something meant to last? do the two of us actually work together long term and after years together still?" are two very different things. :)

First match dreams, our missions on this earth, then see closely their personal habits - do they clean up after themselves? I'm a wife NOT THEIR MOTHER, they need to understand maturity is crucial. MAIN thing IS: DO THEY HAVE A CONNECTION to OUR DIVINE? For that is the SOURCE of the LOVE, that keeps the relationship on course. All problems brought to the highest Source of Life, find the solution, maintaining the relationship that teaches how to take TWO and teach how to be ONE: take me and turns us into WE.

How to ruin a relationship before it even starts: use words like "perfect match" and "soul mate". This kind of talk is nauseating.

[@120-l3l]

I don’t think so, my partner and I knew we were perfect for each other from the beginning, we even discussed how weird it was that we felt so compatible with each other. We were inseparable from the beginning and it came natural for both of us. A year and a half later and we still feel the same, we’ve gone through some extremely hard times and still love each other the same as day 1

Minor betrayals, minor neglects...that's it. sometimes we look for something very big that is wrong, but just this uneasiness in a relationship sometimes is just as important significator it is not working.

[@tianiemitchell5692]

Attraction, verbal intimacy, respect, and being there for each other when it counts and similar goals 60/40 I would think. But that's my point of view

[@agnieszkajaronska]

woow they will make u feel loved, secured, but if u feel insecure is it because u are closed to love, too afraid to break ur heart again, remembering ur exes, not trusting, being insecure about love? being not available emotionally?

[@annar2153]

Thank you for your wisdom, Matthew. All your points are accurate, insightful and incredibly useful. It’s like you are speaking directly into my situation. I particularly love the way you value people, their time, and their intrinsic worth.

[@fortfox1751]

I can understand the theory behind your 4 components. Here comes the 'but': for insecure people the first advice and the second advice don't seem to be compatible. Because at first you're told to look out for your partners needs, second you should look out for your own needs just as much. But when do you do the first and when the other? How can you tell, if there's an imbalance? As insecure people with low self-esteem constantly feel the need to check and evaluate their behavior this is another thing that'll drive them mad.

[@bobkoshy7869]

Insecure people should get therapy, not be in a relationship. I don’t mean having some insecurities, I mean when it gets to a crippling extent like you mentioned.

Equal parts listening to what they need to permit their visit to their friends and also actively giving as a result of paying attention. Yes.

[@user-my2eo9lo1y]

Quick question...would compatibility come before connection? I would think someone would feel more connected when they feel they have more compatibility. Thank you for your time you have invested in these videos you share with others to help them in their love life. God Bless! P.s. Are you ready for our coffee date Matthew? 😁😊

We are hard wired to be attracted to "the wrong person". But at 39 I met the right one, the one I can sit in silence with, enjoy to eat with, who meets me in the middle, share my big hobby. And the irony... he lives so far away :(

[@evka24]

If he was the one he would move or u would.

[@adday.]

@@evka24 @Madam Butterfly We have only known echother for two months. So one of us might move. Or maybe we will not end up together in the long run. This does not change my feeling that I met a soul mate.

[@Lcorod]

If it has only been two months, wait it out. That is not enough time to know if you are compatible.

[@WonderWoman1984-uy5yn]

What if what your partner needs is unreasonable? How do you differentiate between discomfort and not ok. Example: If a partner says they need reassurance, does this mean you need to keep providing them with reassurance no matter what? Or does it reach a point where it becomes overwhelming and unfair, and if they push back they claim you're not showing up for them. What if they need you to not speak to certain people because they don't trust them, do you go along with it because it's your relationship first and you don't want to make your partner uncomfortable, or is it a red flag that this person is going to escalate and start staking rules on who you may and may not speak to? What if they tell you that you did something that upset them, and it's not a big thing to you but it's massive to them and you keep tripping over these little things. Are you insensitive and inconsiderate or are they making you stand on eggshells.

Love language (show not what you want to give,but what partner loves ) ; Work on yourself- has own drive,purpose..; To be a genuine team work 💜 “Sometimes you have to be a gardener,not only admire flowers ☺️” .

[@ThePaulamichele1]

Vulnerability is not always about being insecure. Vulnerability is having the strength to be yourself even when it's difficult. Vulnerability is sharing the deepest parts of yourself, the good and the bad. Being naked is vulnerable because it exposes what people normally can't see. The dictionary definition is "susceptible to physical or emotional attack or harm"... nothing to do with being insecure. All that to say, I do agree that it is not a partner's job to constantly reassure but if a partner needs constant reassurance maybe you aren't loving them the way they need to be loved.

[@ThePaulamichele1]

Also, realizing I've always been the gardener in relationships up until now. It's so nice to be the flower for once.

Yes, lack of compatibility will end a relationship.

[@amieamie6268]

Matthew, can you PLEASE make a video on why 'waiting on someone' or 'I'll give them 2 years' thing is not something you need to waist your time on? I have a friend who is in the 'friends with benefits' sort of relationship with someone, she wants comitment, but she doesn't want to admit it, and he shows no signs of being ready for comitment. And she has literally told me she would be him a few years to figure himself out. Should she really wait? I find that to be an absolute waist of time! Help!
