Are you compatible with your partner?

April 18, 2010 10:27am CST
Hi friends! Do you have a partner right now? Partner as in boyfriend/girlfriend or spouse. I just want to know if you can feel that you are compatible with your partner. Do you have a lot in commons? Do you share the same interests? Can you easily understand each other? Well being compatible in a relationship is sometimes important but I still believe that it can also be the other way around, you may be opposite to each other but still having a good relationship. I believe that respect is important in a relationship. You should not only think of yourself, but also consider your partner before doing anything. So what do you think, are you compatible with your partner? It will be nice to know your answer. Have a great day! Happy myLotting! (",)

I think my boyfriend and I are compatible. We don't share all our interests, but that just makes it more fun and interesting, since we can talk about a lot of things, and debate on a lot of issues which we have different views on. I think we really complement each other more than anything, and that's what I love the most about our relationship.

Yes, I can say that I am compatible with my partner. we think almost the same, we have the same interests ( home and living, gadgets, food, fashion, music, movies, shopping, grocery shopping, television series, travel destinations, etc) we both like teasing each other, laugh at random things, etc... i love my partner so much... i wouldn't trade her with anyone/anything else...

No you dont have to be 100% compatible for a relationship to work. Even opposites do attract each other. I think to make a relationship work you should try your best to understand, trust and love each other. Should not be shelfish.Try learn the partners interest and get involved in them. This should be both ways.

Hi felicitus! Yes, I agree with you, it's not always being compatible that will make a relationship work. Yes what important is acceptance, love and trust. We should both focus on the interests of each person, and not just the interests of one. They should help each other. Thank you for answering. Have a great day! Happy myLotting! (",)

i'd say my husband and i are meant to be together because we complement each other. we're not exactly the opposite but we get along with our differences and it works.

Well for me , well we are somewhat opposite to each other because of our age gap..thou this doesn't mean we don't work well as partners the key factor here is the love, respect and understanding each others flaws.... Being opposite will not mean an everyday fight but it is giving you lessons to maturity..we haven't got any fights as I can recall. If we have some issues with each other we just talk it over and compromise. Now we're in our 2nd year right now and going stronger =)

Hi acey! First of all, I would like to congratulate you for reaching the 2nd year and keeps on getting stronger. Yes, age doesn't really matter. What important is we are learning and its makes the relationship better. Love, respect and understanding are really keys for strong relationship. Thank you for answering. Have a great day! Happy myLotting! (",)

Hi Urmyonly1! I can say that my girlfriend and I doesn't seem compatible but I can say that compatibility is not really a problem if you really love each other,in relationship respect is the perfect word to manage each other advocate to make relationship works with each and compatibility will follow,partner should be more responsible to make thing works out to both of them,they have to adjust with what their partner behavior and accept the flaws of each other. Happy myLotting

Hi mark! Yes, I like what you said, acceptance is really the most important in a relationship. You will never find a perfect partner, because everyone of us has flaws and weaknesses, but the moment that you accepted him/her with all your heart, that will be the time that he/she will be perfect for you. Yes, respect is also important in a relationship. We should never complain or criticize for the weaknesses of our partner, instead we should serve as his/her motivation and make him/her confident of him/herself. Good luck to you and your partner mark! Wish you all the best. Thank you for answering. Have a great day! Happy myLotting! (",)

I think my boyfriend and I are very compatible. We've only been together 4 months (and counting!) but I can definitely say that our relationship is better than when we first became steady. We have enough similar interests to keep us both on the same page and enough different interests to have stuff to talk about with eachother. When we first became steady, people were always telling me, "Wait'll you reach the nth month, THEN you'll start having your fights." I've been very lucky that we haven't reached that point (and hope we never will!) since I'm not really the shouting-in-anger type and my boyfriend is one of the most sensitive guys I know. He'll be the first one to say sorry when he thinks he did something wrong, even if I wasn't bothered in the first place. And I love how having a conversation with him makes me feel all warm and fuzzy, even if we're talking about the most random things (which we always do). I especially love it when he makes a random comment or statement that I was planning to say at that exact moment.

My husband and I share a lot of mutual interests and also have some interests which the other is not interested in at all. It gives us couple time and independent time which I feel that this is what makes out relationship so strong, we have had many many obstacles in our 12 years together and feel that this is what has held us so strongly together. I might be good at one thing and my husband another and we work has a team and enhance each other in most things which makes us a stronger unit. I think that is what is most important in a relationship. The strength that is created and the happiness that comes from being a couple. I feel very compatible with my husband and love the relationship that we have built. Great Question looking forward to reading others responses

Because every trials that you will be surpassed will makes more bonded and more inlove with each other. I'm happy for both of you, I can see that you two are really compatible to each other. Thank you for answering. Have a great day! Happy myLotting! (",)

What is the most important thing for a couple is that they are ready to make any compromises.Me and my partner share almost the same interests but he is a lot older than me and he teaches me to many things.That's why our relations are so tight because we love talking to each other.I learn from him and in a kind praise him and he feels he is like a little child when he is with me.We are not so much the same but this is for good-otherwise we will soon get tired of each other.
19 Apr 10
Hi mokka! Yes, while the relationship is growing, yo are also learning and getting better, that's why a relationship is becoming stronger and tighter. We should be open for learnings in life and we should always respect our partners. I'm glad that you and your partner are doing well. Thank you for answering. Have a great day! Happy myLotting! (",)
