I found this article on how to know if a guy is "Mr Right"
and I think that the points made are pretty good. They are things that would be
red flags to me that a relationship is not going to be compatible. The first
point is one that I think is important, if your friends approve of him. I think
this is important because they know you very well and can sometimes so things
that you are unwilling to see in a relationship. The second is that he gets
along with your family, because it is going to be hard to be in a relationship with
someone if they do not get along with such an important part of your life. Number
three was if he listens to you, which I thought was a pretty obvious one. Who
wants to be in a relationship with someone who doesn't listen to them? Number
four is if you share most of the same major values; I think this will just make
a relationship easier, but not necessarily be a deal breaker. Numbers five and
six are that he is someone you would be friends with and he is trustworthy.
These also seem pretty obvious to me. Number seven on the list is he makes you
feel special, I think this is important. Having that spark in a relationship and
getting that good feeling from a person is important in keeping things fun and
fresh, especially in a long term relationship. The eight point is if he is
willing to talk about the future. This is important to me eventually, because
in the end almost everyone is looking for their future "perfect" person. Number
nine is finding a partner who is financially secure. I am not so sure about
this point. It would be nice to find someone who is secure, but if everything
else works with the person I would not write them off because of financial
reasons. The last one is that he loves you for who you are. Overall this
article seemed pretty good, and I think it could apply to both sexes as things
to look for in a partner.

I really like this article! It definitely caught my attention right away. Many young teens read the articles in Seventeen and Cosmo magazines, evaluating each boy they meet or analyzing her existing relationship to prove whether or not she is with “Mr. Right.” Compatibility is very important as this author mentions. I feel that the website that discusses the 10 signs to tell if he’s Mr. Right seems to be helpful in choosing the person whom you might begin to form a stronger relationship with.
Personally, I think these tips are very interesting and helpful. In fact, I agree with the list of 10 signs that the website and author of this blog discuss. I am not sure whether the creator of the website listed the 10 signs in an order to reflect priority, but if priority would come into play, I would reorder the signs of what to look for. I would like to mention the order I would have written the signs in based on my priority list:
1. He’s the type of person you would be friends with
2. You trust him
3. You share the same values
4. He makes you feel special
5. He listens to you
6. He gets along with your family
7. Your friends approve
8. You feel secure
9. He loves you for who you are
10. He talks about the future
I chose to put “He’s the type of person you would be friends with” as number one, because I have always believed that my boyfriend/husband will become and will always be my best friend. The next most important sign to me is that I feel that you should build a relationship based on trust. I feel that it is good if you share the same values as well—your likes/dislikes, even religion, life in general, etc. Next, I think that Mr. Right should make you feel special and that he wants to make you happy. In my experience, I like getting to know the easy going guys who seem to be great listeners! Also, family is very important to me, but my parents have always said, “We trust that you will find someone who will make you happy. Whoever makes you feel happy, will make us happy.” The friends’ approval is always important as well. Your friends (and even roommate(s)) begin to know you better than anyone as the years go by. The person you are and the boy you match up with can reveal the relationship you might have in the future. To me, the feeling of security goes along with the trust bond built between the two people in the relationship. Feeling secure whether is finances or taking care of others important in your life is always a major sign that the couple is either on the right track or not. I feel that a deep, loving relationship will continue to grow if he loves you for who you are. If two people aren’t in the relationship for the same reasons, that can draw a red flag; however, learning to be one’s self in a relationship is very important in understanding each other’s real self. Last but not least, “he talks about the future.” I chose to put this sign last because some men get scared of talking about the future; however, some girls feel comforted knowing that he will be yours forever and vice versa. However, I have come to the conclusion that this feeling should be mutual, no matter how long it takes. The feeling of love and joy will increase our motive satisfaction, leading a person to continue engaging in the relationship (Reeve, p. 317). Therefore, I believe people need build a strong foundation and through this journey a woman can say she has found “Mr. Right.”
i really enjoyed reading the article " is he the one? 10 signs to tell he's mr. right." finding mr. right is rather difficult, and more often than not we look for the wrong qualities in a significant other. sometimes even getting advice from magazines such as cosmopolitan can alter our judgement as to what "mr. right" should look like or behave.
this article was quite insightful, it discussed 10 signs women should look for when looking for mr. right, and the 10 signs go as follows,
1. Your friends approve
2. He listens to you
3. He gets along with your family
4. You share the same values
5. He's the type of person you would be friends with
6. You trust him
7. He makes you feel special
8. He talks about the future
9. You feel secure
10. He loves you for you
i thought the list above masked the mr. right just perfectly because with out approval, trust you really wouldnt get anywhere in the relationship. let alone if you didnt talk about the future, or felt secure.
