Whether you're in a new relationship or have been together for a long time, you probably don't know everything there is to know about one other. The beauty of partnerships is that you may spend the rest of your life learning new things about your partner. However, if you are considering a long-term relationship with your existing one, there are several things you should ask your boyfriend, girlfriend, or partner right now.
It may seem overly ambitious to start planning so far ahead, but whether you're ready or not, these questions will come up at some time. There are some characteristics that genuinely distinguish us as individuals. For the sake of this essay, we'll refer to your hypothetical partner as "your boyfriend," but these are truths worth understanding regardless of your partner's gender or the stage of your relationship.
1. WHAT THEIR HOPES FOR THIS RELATIONSHIP ARE?
This may be the most crucial question you should ask your boyfriend, girlfriend, or any possible long-term companion. It's perfectly OK for not every relationship to end in marriage. What's not OK is going into a relationship with specific expectations and then having your heart shattered three months later because you never addressed what you want.
"Are you looking for a long-term relationship?" is one thing to ask. "Do you think this is a more casual or serious situation?" "Do you have any limits or boundaries you'd want to establish while we're together?" or "Do you have any restrictions or boundaries you'd like to establish while we're together?"
2. WHAT THEIR FAVORITE HOBBIES ARE?
This is a simple issue to go over when you're first getting to know someone. Learning about your partner's interests is a terrific method to gauge your compatibility; hopefully, you'll have at least a couple in common!
Of course, you shouldn't limit yourself; no one needs to tell their lover everything...would you want that? However, it would be good if you could both share at least one item. In any case, it's useful to know about while arranging to spend time with someone and getting to know them.
3. WHAT THEIR LOVE LANGUAGE IS?
It's cheesy, we get it! But, at the end of the day, nothing stands up as well as a love language. Seriously, take this quiz solely to figure out what your love language is so you can talk to your spouse about it. Your love language essentially expresses how you want to be loved and appreciated by your spouse. Words of affirmation, gifts, acts of service, quality time, and physical contact are the five love languages.
You and your spouse don't have to speak the same love language (though it would make life a little easier, not going to lie). However, as long as you're willing to talk about your love language as you get to know your spouse, you'll be able to rest certain that they'll be able to meet your needs and that you'll be able to reciprocate their love language.
4. What their relationship with their family and friends is like
It's certain that you'll be presented to your boyfriend's friends or family at some point, so be prepared. Before you get in deep, it's wise to ask your lover questions regarding these relationships. Who is their go-to confidant? Is their relationship with their family strong or strained? What's their favorite uncle's name?
You never know what others have been through, and knowing where and when to be sensitive is especially important when dealing with relatives. In the long run, this will have an impact on your family's holidays and major occasions, as well as assist you to gain a sense of how your partner interacts with others.

A Hiatus Turned Reflection
No, I wasn't dead, nor fighting off some great mystical beast tyrannizing a group of villagers. To those who look forward to what I have to say, or to put it better, write, I am genuinely sorry for my disappearance from the Vocal platform and community.

"Shores of Peacefulness: A Day of Rapture at the Ocean side"
The sun rose into the great beyond, projecting a brilliant gleam across the serene waters of the sea. Seagulls took off above, their cries reverberating through the pungent air as the delicate beat of the waves lapped against the sandy shore. It was an ideal day at the ocean side, and for Emily and her family, it guaranteed vast experiences and loved recollections. As they showed up at the ocean side, Emily's heart expanded with energy. She could scarcely hold on to feel the warm sand between her toes and the cool sea breeze all over. With a screech of pleasure, she ran towards the water, her giggling dragging along her like a strip in the breeze. The ocean side was buzzing with movement, as families and companions accumulated to partake in the daylight and the ocean. Youngsters constructed transcending sandcastles, their minds roaming free as they etched turrets and channels with their small hands. Couples walked connected at the hip along the coastline, lost in murmured discussions and sneaked kisses. Also, surfers rode the peaking waves, their chuckling blending with the thunder of the sea. For Emily, the ocean side was a jungle gym of vast potential outcomes. She went through the early daytime sprinkling in the waves, feeling the pungent shower on her skin as she moved in the midst of the surf. She gathered shells along the shore, wondering about their mind boggling shapes and lively varieties. Furthermore, she covered her feet in the warm sand, feeling the earth underneath her toes as she delighted in the basic delight of being alive. In any case, the genuine wizardry of the ocean side woke up in the early evening, as the sun plunged low overhead and the world was washed in a delicate, brilliant light. Emily's family assembled around a popping huge fire, their countenances enlightened by the gleaming flares as they simmered marshmallows and shared stories underneath the stars. As the fire snapped and popped, Emily felt a feeling of harmony wash over her — a sensation of having a place and happiness that she knew must be found at the ocean side. Here, in the midst of the excellence of nature and the glow of friends and family, she felt really alive, her heart spilling over with appreciation for the basic joys of life. As the night wore on and the stars sparkled above, Emily and her family clustered together, enveloped by covers and loaded up with the glow of the fire. They giggled and sang, their voices ascending into the night sky like a chorale of heavenly messengers as they praised the magnificence of the ocean side and the delight of being together. Also, as the fire consumed low and the last coals blurred into the haziness, Emily realize that she would convey the sorcery of this day with her until the end of time. For in the core of the ocean side, in the midst of the sand and the ocean and the stars, she had tracked down a piece of herself — a piece that would continuously have a place with the sea, and to the vast undertakings that looked for her on its shores. As the night extended, the ocean side took on an otherworldly quality, the twilight moving on the waves like a gleaming cover of silver. Emily and her family waited by the fire, sharing stories and chuckling long into the evening. The delicate sound of the sea filled in as a mitigating setting to their discussions, its musical rhythm calming them into a condition of quiet happiness. As they at long last advanced back to their ocean side house, Emily felt a feeling of significant appreciation wash over her. The day at the ocean side had been all that she had expected and the sky is the limit from there — a day loaded up with giggling, love, and remarkable minutes imparted to individuals she treasured most. As she floated off to rest that evening, the waves reverberating in her ears, Emily realize that she would convey the memory of this day with her generally. For in the excellence of the ocean side and the glow of her family's affection, she had found where her heart could really find a sense of contentment — where each second was loaded up with wizardry, and consistently was a gift to be enjoyed.

Sabotage
Lately I’ve been in a funk where everything can be going right. You know I’m in a happy place talking to who knows, I’m at peace and feel like everything is just going great you know. But once I start seeing that everything is going great for some reason I need to sabotage it. I need to sabotage my happiness and what I have going on in my life so no one else is able to do it for me. Does that make sense? Am I the only one who gets this way?
