You think about the person often, even when you are busy
Their happiness matters to you as much as your own
You feel calm and safe around them
You want to share your thoughts, time, and experiences with them
You accept their flaws without idealizing them
You care about their well-being in practical ways
You feel excited to see or hear from them
You make room for them in your future plans
You want to support their goals and growth
You feel emotionally connected, not just attracted
You miss them when they are not around
You are willing to compromise without losing yourself
You trust them and want to be trustworthy in return
You feel like you can be yourself with them
You choose them consistently, not just when it is convenient
