When you’re dating someone, you’re constantly on the lookout for signs that your partner is right for you.
And while the perfect gift or display of affection can make your heart sing, the most successful relationships are built on much more than random grand gestures.
There are no perfect people, and there are no perfect relationships. What matters, though, is how we manage and overcome those imperfections to remain close to those we love the most.
Because, as Mike and the Mechanics explain, “It’s too late when we die to admit we don’t see eye to eye.”
Friendships are like any relationship. Both parties must be on the same wavelength for the arrangement to survive. And when they’re not, they have to work through whatever roadblocks there are to get back in harmony.

The old saying goes that when you marry someone, you marry their family, too.

But what’s far more important is how the two of you choose to prioritize each other.
