Books, movies, and even self-help books have provided us with tips and suggestions on how to find the man of our dreams. We are told that oftentimes, the quest for Mr. Right is challenging – and women always need to be careful for bad intentions are always concealed in silver platters.

So how do you know then that the person you’re with has the potential of being Mr. Right? As there will never be a exact answer to such a inquiry, looking for the following qualities would more often than not, lead you to your Prince Charming:

1. Someone who is confident about himself
Find someone who is at ease about his life – his job, his earnings, his relationships. He doesn’t have to be the richest man in the world who constantly showers you with designer Women’s Wallets. What’s important is that he is confident that he can make things happen, that he can make you happy. When your man has this quality, then you will be sure that he will never run away from responsibility – that he will take good care of you.

2. Someone whom you can talk to
Movies and books have said it: a relationship is not just about romance and passion. It is not just about mushy love letters and elegant letter openers; not just about bouquets and romantic nights. It is important that you must be able to talk to your mind – confide in him. When you’re old and grey, passion dissolves, but companionship ties you together.

3. Someone who can tolerate you
Everyone has tantrums and mishaps every once in a while. Thus, your man should have extraordinary patience and understanding for you (he doesn’t need to extend this kind of courtesy to others though). For instance, your man should be able to tolerate why in the middle of the night, you need to get to the office carrying your briefcase for women. He should be able to understand that sometimes, your job would demand so much from you. More importantly, your man should be able deal with your little quirkiness, your little tantrums.

There’s no sure and definite way of knowing whether the person is the right one for you. Sometimes, you misread the signs. But as what the folks say, find someone who can love you more than you can love yourself. That way, you are certain that you will be taken care of – come rain or shine, come hell or high water.
