If you and your partner are comfortable with each other to the point that you're showing your less glamorous side to each other and your honest thoughts and opinions without worry, that means you know you like each other for who you are and will survive the ups and downs of life together. This is a good sign that your relationship will last!

Feeling jealousy or insecurity over the other's success doesn't bode well for your relationship. Indifference is also a bad sign.
A long-lasting couple will see each other's achievements as a win for both as a team. If you and your partner are proud and enthusiastic about each other's goals, efforts and successes, you're on the right track!
#4 You both consistently commit to each other

Arguments in any relationship is perfectly normal and can even be healthy if it's done right. Fair and healthy conflicts never veer into the territory of hurtful attacks, bringing up unrelated grievances or are aimed at winning the argument rather than resolving it.
If you're both willing to apologise sincerely for your faults and work out your differences, these conflicts will strengthen your relationship.
#6 You share similar values and life goals

They say opposites attract but there are certain major things that will likely be dealbreakers if you're not on the same page. This includes your core values, life goals and the vision of how you want your life to be such as having children and financial habits.
If these major aspects of your lives are aligned, it's a sign that your relationship is headed in the right direction!
