In a world of swipes, texts, and “situationships,” it’s easy to wonder: how do you really know if someone is marriage material? Love is very important — but it’s worth remembering that lasting love is something which is built on respect, growth, and compatibility. Good communication skills, shared responsibilities, mutual respect, and quality time together are very important to keep a marriage strong and alive. And that insight really hits the mark — because true compatibility is much deeper than “just getting along.” Whether you’re engaged, or just trying to get clear if you’re with the right person, Hammad Rahman, CEO of NikahForever shared about five signs that will help you answer whether you’ve really found “The One.”
Here are the signs that indicate you are with the right partner:
Hammad Rahman highlighted that at the core of every strong relationship is a feeling of safety — emotional safety. If you can talk about your thoughts, fears, and dreams without the fear of being judged, ridiculed, or belittled, you’ve got something very special. Emotional safety opens the door to establishing a foundation one where both can truly blossom together and separately. It’s not about avoiding fights; it’s about knowing you’ll be heard, understood, and accepted.
You might have different passions, hobbies may change, but values? Values hold the very essence of a relationship. Whether family relationships, finances, spirituality, or lifestyle values, being in sync with the things that matter helps life flow. When values are in opposition, the future gets murky. But when values align, you are building a life and future together — in the same direction.
Arguments occur and disagreements are a normal part of the relationship. However, it is how you manage the disagreements and arguments that will ultimately shape your future. If your partner can own their own stuff, listen, and respond (or, not react) when disagreements arise, you've hit a healthy spot. Mature conflict resolution includes respect, compromise, and growth - rather than ego, blame, or silent treatment.
A partner who is receptive to learning, unlearning, and growing with you is pure gold. Whether this is a new job, therapy, or new goals in your life, if they support your evolution (and work on their own), you've found a person who views marriage as a journey and not a destination.

The importance of this cannot be overstated. Honest, consistent conversations and sharing thoughts and feelings in a relationship are incredibly important. When both partners are willing to show up, speak up, and work together, marriage is viewed as a shared success, not one person struggling to maintain a relationship.
Finding "the one" is not about ticking boxes on a list. It is about connecting, committing, and compatibility - emotionally, intellectually, and practically. If your partner checked most (if not all) the signs, then you are not only lucky in love - you are likely ready for a lifetime together.
