There is a reason I don't get into relationships too soon, or at all, until I'm sure that person and I could be in a happy and healthy relationship that would benefit both. Actually, three reasons. Because there are three things that must not lack in a relationship for it to work. And here is myTake on it!
BODY
The first thing that we decide if we like about someone is their body and their face. Meaning: are we physically attracted to them? And if the answer is yes, then we will feel more inclined to approach them and even get to know them. Even though people get more attractive to us when we learn how intelligent or kind they are, some kind of attraction needs to exist. Appearance matters, and we all know this to be true. Once physical attraction is a yes, we proceed to the next.
MIND
Next, is the attraction of someone's mind. The ability the other has to excite us with their thoughts is a major factor that works in our attraction. The ability to discuss problems, whether they relate to the relationship itself or the world around us. To discuss history, politics, literature, religion, science. Be it what may! Everyone in general should have some kind of insight into these things and if you find someone that can excite you with their opinions alone they are someone who will always keep you entertained! In this little game of back and forth you will build a connection that will make both of you grow because having your ideas is good, but if you have someone with more ideas of their own, they can actually help you grow. And that is what relationships should be about. A mutual growth.
HEART
This one is, I think, something that we can't control and that comes with time. For your heart to be won over those other things have to be too. And more importantly, a bond of friendship must be formed. Because a relationship that grows from friendship will always last, even after and if the relationship fails. Because your love for them will not disappear. If you love someone you will not stop loving them. You will still care for their well-being, and even if things don't work, you will not wish them bad things. They will stay in your heart if you're together, or if you are apart. If someone is in your heart, they are guaranteed an eternal home, because when love runs deep it stays. Like an ancient tree: you may cut the branches, you mat cut the trunk, but the roots are so deep within the earth, that they will not budge.
