According to Dr. John Gottman, who has over 50 years of research under his belt, “lasting love isn’t about finding someone perfect—it’s about finding someone perfectly suited to grow alongside you.”
Gottman says that we can be compatible with several people but that doesn’t mean the relationship will necessarily last. He explains that compatibility is something you build together through conscious choices, shared experiences, and mutual commitment to growth.
“The one” is the person you choose to build a life with, day after day, reveals the expert: “It’s the person you turn toward instead of away from during conflicts. It’s the person whose hand you reach for during both celebrations and sorrows.”

The first sign that you’ve found marriage material is that you enjoy spending time together. But that doesn’t necessarily mean red, hot passion.
“True connection doesn’t always feel like fireworks,” Gottman says. “Often, it feels like coming home. You know you’ve found something special when being together feels as natural as breathing—when you can sit in comfortable silence, when your partner’s presence soothes your nervous system rather than activating it.”
