When it comes to dating, many people have a hard time figuring out whether or not they have found the ideal person.
You might think that a person would automatically know it, and sometimes they do, but so many people are still under the impression that the grass is greener on the other side.
Or that special person will just drop from heaven and say I am the one! If you are someone who always tends to think that there is something bigger and better out there, you may never be satisfied until you change your way of thinking.
Here are some questions to ask yourself as you decide whether your partner is ideal for you.
The key though is to make sure that you are not jumping into things too quickly.
Just because you may have found Mr.
or Miss Right does not mean that the while thing could not be ruined by simply jumping into an engagement or wedding too fast.
You want to make sure that you are taking your time and that you are allowing the relationship to naturally blossom.
Of course, there are some relationships that move very fast and are a success, but those are far and few between so you want to be careful with moving fast with the relationship.
If that special person allows that time to happen, you have found a catch.
Do not believe that just because someone is being pushy about marriage that they must be the ideal catch for you.
You want someone that will respect your space because once you are married, you are certainly going to need some of that from time to time.
Another thing to remember is that what may define the ideal person for one individual may not be the ideal type of person for another.
Everyone is different so it is important to make sure that you are listening to your heart, and not the heart of everyone else.
When you do this, you will have a much better shot at making sure that you find and hold onto the right person when you find him or her.
Just relax and before you know it you will be in the arms of the perfect person for you and you will see just how much it was worth the wait.

Here are some questions to ask yourself as you decide whether your partner is ideal for you.
- Think about the time that you and your partner spend together.
Is there more peace than drama? - Do you experience joy and happiness most of the time you are in each others company.
- While you do not have to like everything that the other person does, do you at least have some things in common?
- Are both of you able to get along with or at least respect each other's friends?
- Do you get on with each others family? Whilst it is not a prerequisite for a successful relationship it helps when there is peace between you and your partner's family.
- Do you agree or at least have an understanding on the fundamentals of a future life together e.
g whether you want to have children or not.
the number of children you will have, how you will raise them, where you will live - would you be happy if you have to relocate to another country because of your partner? how to handle your finances etchese are some.
These are some of the things that can cause major problems in a relationship when they are not addressed in the early stages of your relationship.
- Religion and your spirtual understanding is another area to assess.
Is there mutual respect of each others beliefs? - Are you open and transparent with one another.
Is there a free flow communication between you? When you are able to communicate with someone freely it is a good sign of having of a healthy relationship - There are no secrets between you to the best of your knowledge
- Have you found that you are both more concerned about the feelings and well being of their other person than your own
