Life partner Most people grew up with the "guide" that in adult life they will need to find out a partner to build their own family and then follow throw the next stage of life. It is traditional in our society, no matter the culture. We have also a diversity of couples with age differences, sex orientation or even in virtual relationships. But the essence continues the same => Love and affinity. As a human being, we need to live in groups, to have friends, to communicate with each other. And the consequence is to have more affinity with someone else that we have the same interests. Of course, we can feel attracted to someone that looks good, and then fall in love and begins a relationship. But if they do not have synergy together, it is difficult to keep relation for a long period. There is not a recipe to find out a life partner. Some people looking for a soulmate their entire life, without success. While others are more relaxed, trying only to know people and live the moment, without pressure. In these cases mentioned, we have the same essences that will support the relationship last for more time, such as sex interest, humor sense, energy, kindness, dreams. All of us need to experiment to live a big love. No matter the age, social position, gender. And this love can become a life partner. My life partner is my wife, that is also my best friend, my confidant, my lover, my sons´ mother. If we brake up in the future, she will not lose this title as my "life partner". But it is my example, my opinion. I know a person that considered their friend as a life partner. No matter, what the problem? There are a lot of examples, combinations. The important thing is to have a person to be our confidant, friend, that we can enjoy life, smiling, crying. It is the essence.
