How do you choose your life partner? From generation to generation, and from age to age, this has been a great challenge. In order to be successful in this, you need to be very realistic because no one is perfect. I’m not perfect and you’re not a saint either. I’ve gone through this, and that’s why I want to share some of the tips that actually worked for me.
1. First, you need to go into yourself and have a mental picture of what and who your life partner would be like. What character traits are you looking out for? What are those qualities or attributes that’ll make your heart skip a beat when you see them in your partner? As you’ve gotten all those at the back of your mind, you now go searching, ok?!
2. That life partner you’ve found, and interested in, is there mutual love and respect for each other? Does he or she care about how you feel? Are you proud of her? Can you introduce her to your friends? Does she like your looks and the way you dress? Does she like the way you chew apples? Can you honestly say you feel great or happy when you’re together?
3. A lady friend of mine saw me and my wife one day and said, ‘your wife looks natural’. With pride and that deep tone, I said, ‘yes, she is’. Your life partner needs to be natural in his or her activities, attitudes and behaviors, not only to you as her spouse, but also to everyone around. She should be herself in all situations. No pretences!
