What are some of the better ways to tell if some one is good for you or is actually interested in you.I feel like this would be a good to post for sub and doms because maybe their will be less heart break and Paine in the ddlg comunity.Some things I look for are 

 

How much they ask about you/things your interested in.

How often they change their story.

what they remember about you

Hmm. Also try to pick up on incompatibility issues. Sometimes stuff said in passing that might throw up a flag(but you sort of dismiss/forget) can lead to issues down the road.

Sounds like you'd be interest in Huniepop. xD

All jokes aside I'd say all that's really needed is honesty in any form of relationship, but if you wanted a romantic partner being compatible would also help. To each their own.

The self questioning is a really good idea in any type of relationship. Address anything that raises a red flag immediately before it becomes an issue. If your partner gets angry, or throws the "don't you trust me" line, be honest and say "no...I have trust issues & this is why."

 

Honesty & openess are key. But this also means being honest with yourself. If your daddy doesn't ask any questions about you & your day, if they change their story, if they flat out ignore you when you're with them, then sadly, they're just not that into you & it's time to move on. It's better to hurt a little in the beginning than to hurt more once you're more emotionally invested.

The one thing i love about my Daddy and I is that we are willing to talk out the problems/ fights. Look, my Daddy is amazing because I'll be honest I am a broken human being and i cannot shake from my past relationships vanilla as they are and I make mistakes and hurt Daddy, but we talk it out. Daddy is patient with me and he understands I'm flawed and I understand that he makes mistakes to. So..

 

patience

communication

forgiveness

Good for you:

- Will a relationship with this person encorage positive behaviors or enable negative ones?

- Am I confident that any secrets I tell this person will stay with them? Does the person reciprocate by telling me their secrets?

- What can this person teach me?

- Do we share enough common interests to hold a conversation after we know eachothers histories?

- How does this person react to feedback/constructive criticism? (Subs should always be hypervigilant for any signs of manipulation)

 

Actually interested:

- Am I a priority for this person? Do they respond to my messages in a timely manner?

- What did this person tell their friends/family about me? (Verify if possible)

- How does this person react/respond when I communicate fears or reservations?

- When I ask about their future plans, does this person include me?
