Too often, people choose their life partner based on things that have nothing to do with character qualities. Often the reasons are no less superficial than physical attraction, employment, and a good sense of humor. While these may have some vital benefit in a relationship, they fall far short of describing a person's character qualities.

If nothing more is known about a person's character qualities, there is a great chance for problems in the future. Eventually, their character is revealed through the real life day-to-day adversities that we all face.

For the single person who becomes proficient at learning to read another person's character, he or she will be able to look for a life partner armed with knowledge of what to look for in a mate. They will be able to give a more honest portrayal of their own character strengths to their potential mate. They will also become skilled in looking for genuine qualities they prefer or counterfeit qualities they wish to avoid.

There are many things to watch for and be aware of; however, here is a list of just a few examples for you to consider:

  • If punctuality is not your quality, beware of making a commitment to someone who is prone to be punctual and prone to misuse it. Sparks will fly every time you are late, and feelings will be hurt.

  • On the other hand, if punctuality is your quality, and if you are prone to misuse it, beware of making a commitment to someone who lacks the quality of punctuality. Their lack of punctually will cause problems for you to deal with.

  • If you were certain that you would never want to be in a relationship with a complainer, make certain that your potential mate has the quality of gratefulness.

  • Are you certain that you want to be with someone who can talk and hold an expressive conversation? If you are, be prepared to see the counterfeits of expressiveness because there is a large chance you will see it in action.

  • You have determined that your potential mate under consideration has a good number of character qualities that you really admire; however, you see a prevailing attitude of disrespectfulness as well. Beware! Respectfulness can enhance every genuine quality; however, disrespectfulness can magnify every counterfeit.

  • You have the quality of hospitality and amiableness. You love to entertain guests and cannot imagine your life any other way. You have two choices. One, find someone else who has the quality of hospitality. Two, find someone who at the very least has the quality of cooperativeness.

  • Do you want to avoid pack rats? Avoid people with counterfeit frugality ...especially if they lack respectfulness!

  • Is personal organization necessary for you? Keep your eyes wide open for the quality of neatness! If you do not see it, move on to the next person.

  • Would you like to find someone that is good at settling disputes? Look for fair-mindedness ...but beware of how it is misused! You may not like that.

  • Are you absolutely convinced that you want to be with someone who clearly understands that when you say no it means no? Make certain to avoid someone with the quality of persistence ...especially those who are inclined to misuse it.

  • If you are having a problem with the counterfeits of sensitivity beware of a relationships with others who have a problem with the counterfeits of objectivity. There may be a serious clash between the counterfeits of easily offended and insensitivity.
