8 Ways to Confirm that You are in an Exclusive Relationship

article-201451484150015300000With so many people hooking up nowadays, including the “friends with benefits” scenario, many are not sure if they are in a relationship or in a “situationship”, a word I saw recently on social media. Relationships are sometimes treated like clothing; some change them almost daily. Then there are others who don’t mind sharing in intimate relationships with multiple partners, which are many times unknown to the other participants. Regardless of what we see in media, there are many people who still have a strong desire for an exclusive relationship. They want someone to refer to them as “mine”.
Here are eight ways to confirm if your relationship is exclusive:
1. You are their number one priority. If they are already parents, then their children will be their top priority, but thereafter, you are it. Your needs are met by them; they want to know how they can help and serve you in every possible way. They want to know ALL about you – the good and the bad. When they find out things about you that you may be ashamed of, they don’t run away. They also work hard to see you smile.
2. They create boundaries with their other friendships (and family members) to ensure that the relationship is protected. If they have opposite-s*x friendships, they establish boundaries to ensure that their significant other doesn’t have to question or wonder about anything.
3. They have nothing to hide. Nothing is off-limits. No question is too intrusive. Passwords are shared. They want you to know that they can be trusted; they want to put your mind at ease.
4. They are 100% committed to you. No-one else has their heart. They have made great strides in ridding themselves of soul ties, and they have completely ended and severed previous relationships.
5. They want to help you build your dreams. They have amazing suggestions and ideas, and they are ready to roll up their sleeves to help you build. They are not intimidated by your goals and dreams, because they know you want them to be a part of it!
6. They are ready to share you with the world. After they have vetted you with close friends, mentors, family members and spiritual leaders, they want to tell the world that you belong to them. They will start introducing you to their wider circle so that everyone becomes aware of the relationship.
7. There is discussion of marriage. Pre-marital counseling is scheduled with a professional therapist or spiritual leader (or both). The input of an objective, professional third party into the relationship helps to bring blind spots into view, and helps to bring an exclusive couple (who are compatible) even closer to each other.
8. They prefer spending their spare time with you over anyone else. They want to be in your presence just to experience you as much as they can. Their friends may tease them, but it doesn’t matter. You have become an important and vital part of their world, and they want everyone (including you) to know that!
Being loved exclusively is an amazing experience. To be treasured above everyone else, and to know that your lover has your back at all times adds an element of security and confidence to life like nothing else can. Check the list, and look at your relationship to determine if you have signs of exclusivity. Be open to having that discussion!

60 Percent of Women Won’t Marry a Debtor

  We’ve come a long way since the Mad Men -esque era of the 50s and 60s, when financial security for women came exclusively in the form of a man. At least that’s according to the findings of a new survey from Charlie. We surveyed 533 single (defined as never married) women ages  18 to 40 in to find out how they think about finances when it comes to finding “the one.” According to the results, women are waiting until well into their relationships to have the “money talk.” If they don’t like what they hear, bad news: most women view potential beaus or belles with a large amount of debt as more of a liability, than an anchor. The majority of single women these days don’t believe that marriage is necessarily the ticket to financial stability. But to understand where we’re at now, it’s important to take a look at where we came from. A Brief History of Women’s Financial Rights Back in the “good old days,” our grandmothers had little choice but t...
