How do you know if your girlfriend or boyfriend is serious about you? Have you been together for a long time and don’t see any growth in the relationship? You can not tell many times what your partner thinks about your relationship and if they deem you a possible partner for life.

When we first meet and start dating someone, we tend to put our best foot forward. If we imagine we like this person we can put on a front so we can impress them hoping they like us. You hit it off real good and have been dating for a while now, but the honeymoon is over and we start to be our real selves.

It is at this point we see the true character of our partner. Now we can really judge them for who they are. This goes for you to, your boyfriend or girlfriend will be seeing the real you also. You can not go on ceaselessly putting them on.

Is there something your partner does that irritates you? Is it really that bad or do you just have a low tolerance for it. Think of these kinds of things, if you become a long term couple will this drive you crazy?

Does your partner take you for granted or are they courteous and helpful to you at all times. Many times a guy for example will think of doing for you but never gets around to it. He may think its ok, you will not mind. But in reality you are taking notice of these kinds of things.

If it looks like your partner is in it just for the ride then you may realize that this person is not taking things serious. Try to feel them out to understand what they are thinking. If you are looking for a long term relationship and you do not see it in your current partner then it may be time to move on.
