When it comes to romantic relationships, I hear over and over again the same phrase: I want to find the right partner/the partner of my dreams, and I’ll live a happy life. Friends or clients, men or women, and even teenagers talk about how much they want to find the man/ woman of their dreams. Every one of us (because I cannot exclude myself) have a mental or actual list of traits we want to find in our ideal partner.

Regardless of their relationship status, all my clients have the same question: “How do you know you found the right person?” Since this is a recurrent question in my practice, I started writing this article with the hopes it will help you, too.
