This recent study says, "It's not about who are with, its the dynamic you have with them."
Whether you are swiping, matching, DM'ing or being setup with your best friends cousin over zoom it's not about if they fit your "type" that makes you successful it's about the dynamic you build when you are with them.
This study also includes:
- sexual satisfaction
- commitment levels
- life satisfaction ... and more
On a personal note, my partner and I have been together for 6 years. We have lived in two different states, lived with our parents, navigated growth and change in our own way and continue to evolve. I can say first hand that our dynamic is one of a kind and makes us work. I will also add that our relationship is successful because we focus on the present, our humor runs deep, we're willing to forgive and we give each other room to live.
