Love. Partnership. \u201cSoul Mate\u201d \u2013 So many of us spend a good chunk of our lives looking for \u201cThe One.\u201d But what happens when we actually find someone? How do we know if they\u2019re the person who is right to spend the rest of our lives with? Or even if starting a relationship with them is the right choice? While compatibility is no guarantee of longevity, studies show that it is directly related to the quality and satisfaction of our relationships. Simply put, the more compatible you and your partner are; the happier you\u2019re likely to be with them.<\/p>\n
