Things You Should Know

- They’ll be empathetic, helpful, and consistently supportive. You’ll feel safe around them and feel like there’s a strong trust between you.
- Communication comes easily when you talk to someone who loves you. They’ll allow you to be vulnerable and handle conflict respectfully.

What’s important is how you work through things. A loving partner will probably mess up from time to time, but they’ll be willing to learn and grow—as should you! This way, you can build an even more loving and compassionate bond together.Thanks

Everyone makes mistakes, and anger, jealousy, and insecurity are normal feelings. If your partner slips up or has a bad day, it doesn’t mean they don’t love you. They’re human, and they’ll make mistakes just like you will.Thanks
