So you’re dating a man, and within a date or two, you’re falling head over heels. Pheromones can do that, physical attraction is immediate, but the draw can be, unfortunately, superficial. To get some insight into the bigger question—whether the two of you can go the distance--is a bit trickier and requires some hard questions and self-reflection.
How to tell if he’s the right guy for you is a uniquely individual process. It’s funny how that works. It may seem as if everyone you know has an idea of who should be your perfect next spouse or partner. But only you can know if someone has the potential to be a solid match. Need help figuring out how that goes? Try answering these highly pertinent questions.
Does he have a sense of humor that dovetails with yours?
Does he make you laugh?
Are your waking/sleeping schedules compatible? It’s a bummer to make it work when he’s a perpetually early riser and you’re the lie-in type.
Do you like the same kind of food? Drink about the same amount of alcohol?
If you’ve been dating long enough for him to meet your friends and family, does he get along with them?
Do you get along with his?
