  • Choosing a Life Partner - Part 2

    Choosing a Life Partner - Part 2
    May 25 2022
    Do you know exactly what you're looking for in a life partner? Ask yourself these questions to focus your search and find the right match. PART 2    http://www.claritycoachingservices.com       TRANSCRIPT:   Hi, I’m Carol with Clarity Coaching Services and I’m here to share some tips on how to build your best life. Today I’m going to offer some tips on how to determine what you are looking for in a life partner, to clarify what things you're looking for and what things you need.  I’ve compiled a list of questions based on my own life experience and also the experiences of people I know. Along the lines of kids, if there are kids involved, parenting styles -- what is their parenting style? How do they set boundaries or discipline? What routines do they have with their kids, if they have kids already? Maybe you're young; maybe you don't have kids. Do they have nieces and nephews? How do they act around kids, if you want to have kids someday or you do have kids. These are good things to know and are any of these things deal breakers? Geographical location -- again this is flexible; people move a lot nowadays, so choosing someone based on their geographical location may not be the wisest idea, but it's certainly something to consider. Where do you want to live? Would you be willing to move to be with a well-matched partner?  Where are you going to look for your partner? Geographical location might be a consideration -- are you willing to look outside your current geographical area to find a true partner? Would you consider a long-distance relationship? Are any of these things deal breakers? Time with a partner -- this is also something to consider, and many people don't. They assume that because they're in a new relationship and they're spending a lot of time together, they love being with each other, that this is the way it's always going to be. But once that wears off, and real life happens, things change. So how much time would you like to spend with your partner each day? What is the minimum amount of time you would like to spend with your partner each day? Are you the kind of person that wants to see their partner an hour or two a day? Would you like eight hours a day? Do you want to work with your partner? Are you comfortable with your partner traveling half of the month? How (I don't want to say how needy are you, because that's not really a fair way to put it), but would you be okay if your partner traveled frequently? And are any of these things deal breakers? Be honest about how much time and attention you would like from your partner. How much time would they like with you? Are you comfortable with how much time they would want with you, or how little time? Health -- are there healthy behaviors that you would require your partner to have? Maybe you are a vegetarian and you just couldn't stand to live with someone who ate meat. Are there any unhealthy habits that you would not like your partner to have? You know, maybe they only shower once a week, or they don't floss as often as you would. I’m not judging, I’m just saying do you have any preferences or requirements that would be deal breakers in a partner?  Are there any physical or mental health issues that you would not like your partner to have? Are you pretty open and understanding if a partner suffers from occasional anxiety or depression or anything like that? Or are any of those deal breakers? Nowadays, you are going to have a hard time finding someone who doesn't have any kind of issues but be upfront and honest about what you can handle and what you can’t. How do you feel about a potential partner having a current or past addiction? Maybe you've had a past addiction and you would rather not partner up with someone who also has. Maybe you want someone who can be that strong rock to lean on or maybe you would like someone who understands what you've gone through and shares that past. So are any of these things deal breakers? Cleanliness -- how clean and neat would you like your partner to be? How clean and neat do you require your house to be? Or your car? Would you be able to compromise on the level of cleanliness or neatness to accommodate your partner? Maybe you're a neat freak or maybe you're not. Maybe you don't think folding your underwear is a big deal and it's not a requirement, or making the bed every day. Does it matter if your partner wants that and you had to start accommodating and doing that? Or what if you want the dishes to always be done in the sink and your partner doesn't mind if they sit there for a day -- are you going to be able to handle that? Are any of these things deal breakers? Physical appearance -- most people have a pretty good idea of what they want their partner to look like (or at least what they don't want them to look like). Some people have a type, and some people don't have a specific type but they know they're attracted to certain people and not others. So what would your ...
