Things to consider when choosing the ‘right partner’

Isn’t it really sad when we have to hear of either a couple or lovers who kill each other in the news? Domestic violence has become the order of the day with relationship wrangles taking center stage. It is pretty obvious there’s no perfect way of knowing who will suit you best. However, there are things that are crucial for consideration.

First and foremost, don’t choose needy people and never stop living your life just because of a relationship. Going ahead to be in a relationship with someone who says they can’t live without you is certainly a red light - danger ahead. This means they want you for what they think you can do to help or change them, or you might be a rebound. Getting married to a drunk when you don’t drink does work magic on them to stop.
