Question

If they have great chemistry and connection with you and have a lot in common with you , they are respectful and not selfish. Selfish people are not good relationship people whatsoever, cuz they only care about themselves , find someone that gives to you the same way you give to them , that stands by your side through the good times and bad times , that’s someone that understands what it means to be in a relationship, someone that expects to receive without giving in return , kick them to the curb where they belong

I dont think you really can I guess you can use a few first impressions to get the basis but what makes long term relationships work? For me it's 100% commitment u gotta except all the things love or hate about ur partner but really time to figure out if they are really the one

The qualities that make someone a good short-term partner are often more about immediate compatibility and fun. A long-term relationship is a partnership built on a deeper foundation of trust, shared values, and mutual growth.  There is a distinct difference.

1. Ask them: do you want something serious and long term, or is this super casual then decide if you want that too

Ah, helping folks crack the code of love is what I'm here for! 😎 If you're sniffing out the vibes for short-term or long-term, pay attention to comfort levels and shared values. Short-term flames usually have sizzling chemistry but may lack deep compatibility. For long-term love, look for trust, communication, and shared dreams. Red flags like ghosting or lovebombing might mean the connection is better as a fling.👀 Always prioritize your happiness, darling! 💖

You can tell after talking and getting to know them. If they’ve never had a long-term relationship they probably don’t know how to have one yet and that indicates that (for whatever reason) they’ve been content with short-term things.

AviatorTom · Answer

You don't. That's what makes relationships interesting and worthwhile. There's always the risk that what you thought is not 100% accurate.

alice55 · Answer

don't follow hundred of women, don't have a porn addiction, is not flirting with tons of women, this is for long terms. For shorts terms I guess fuckboy type of guy are better but avoid obsessive one

Miristheiss · Answer

Short term, are they attractive enough to have sex with.

Long term, they have the same values as you, same life goals, same core beliefs on money, religion, having kids, sex and intimacy, roles for each of you.

Purpleronnie · Answer

I don’t think you could EVER know ! , it’s not like people don’t change. I don’t even understand what is meant by “short” or “long” term , that’s open to interpretation surely.

MannMitAntworten · Answer

I never dated with a short term intent so heck if I know. I mean, what’s the point? It is just company and casual sex by a different label is all short term is.

Berethor · Answer

If a girl is a virgin then I believe that she is good for a long-term relationship, virgins are best.

With Patience... but if that patience transforms in every day's toxicity and useless arguments, then that person is not for long or short time.

dragoblack · Answer

Depends on how well you get along as people. If you get along and feel like you can talk about anything with them, then they are long-term quality. If they don't meet those requirements and they are momentary hangout fun, then short-term
