What To Look For In A Life Partner? | Relationships | Professor M.S. Rao

“Life is meant for learning, enjoying, and growing, not for litigating.” ―Professor M.S. Rao

When I was working out in the gym a young man approached and informed me with excitement that he was planning to get married. He asked me how to choose a life partner and asked me to advise how to ensure a happy married life. I advised him as follows.

Choosing the right partner is essential to ensure longevity in married life. Choose the partner based on compatibility and chemistry. Look for character, not color. Look for attitude, not appearance. Don’t look for money and status because they are dynamic and can change at any time.

When you love a person you get trapped but later you realize that there is no compatibility. You regret your mistake. So, you must be careful while choosing your partner. Ask a few questions before marriage to avoid ending up with disappointment and divorce. Check the alignment of your dreams and ambitions. Find out the plans to check whether they are aligned with you. Check for compatibility in financial goals. Proceed if you are persuaded with positive responses from your prospective partner.

After marriage, treat her with respect. Love her. Care for her. Empathize with her. Don’t take her for granted. Spend time with her. Communicate carefully. Ensure physical intimacy. Have sex regularly. You cannot be the same as your partner but you must create a common ground. Look for similarities, not differences. Be each other's best friend. Accept the fact that your partner is not perfect. It requires a lot of hard work and sacrifices to maintain your marriage life intact and make it successful.

When you have a perfect partner, you can live in harmony and happiness. So, create a conducive environment at home. This is the finest remedy for all illnesses. Be patient, loving, and caring. Enjoy the process. If things go too extreme adversely, explore the option of divorcing to avoid further complications. Learn to lead a happy and independent life after divorce.

Your siblings may go away. Your in-laws may go away. Your parents may go away. Your children may go away. But it is your spouse who will be with you throughout your life. Keep this in your mind and lead your life carefully and mindfully.

Takeaway: Follow these tips to live a happy married life. A relationship is not about you or your partner. It is between you. Remember that a long-lasting relationship is about friendship, deep bonding, and compatibility.
