8 Qualities Successful Singles Need in a Mate


Dating in Omaha while working in a high-pressure career isn’t easy for anyone, and it takes a certain level of maturity in someone you date to understand that. As a successful professional, you need to be extra discerning with your time when qualifying potential partners. Below are key characteristics you need to look for in a mate in order to keep the both of you content, and your relationship progressing:

1. FINDING COMMON GROUND
There should always be a designated time for the two of you to share what’s been going on in each other’s lives. This is key to having a successful relationship. Creating a ritual that only the two of you do will solidify your bond, and you’ll cherish the moments you do spend together even more.

2. VERBAL SUPPORT
Whether you’re working a regular 9 to 5 job, going to school full time, or pursuing your entrepreneurial endeavors, you will need someone supportive. Men may not show their emotions as often as women but both genders still feel deeply. It’s important that you have a partner that supports you, but make sure you are reciprocal.

3. ADDRESSING NEEDS
Be sure to address your needs in the relationship from the beginning, and make sure your partner is honest about theirs as well.

4. PLAN IN ADVANCE
Create a schedule that you enjoy that aligns with your partner’s and works around your busy work week. This will keep your partner from worrying about being away from you and give them (and you) something to look forward to.

5. ACTIONS SPEAK LOUDER
Many times people will say “I support you,” but in all actuality, it means nothing if they can’t stand being alone. Make sure that what your partner is telling you aligns with their actions.

6. BE RESPECTFUL OF THE OTHER PERSON’S TIME
Yes, you are a busy professional, but make sure not to downplay the other person’s time either. Be respectful of your commitment to them by honoring dates, avoiding rescheduling or canceling without significant notice, and making the time with them the best it can be. They’re busy, too, and have things they could be doing. Be mindful of that and think beyond yourself.

7. LISTEN
Listening to your partner’s needs is very important as it will give you both a better understanding of one another. This is an obvious one, but you’d be surprised to know how often this is overlooked and under-appreciated. 

8. AVOID DEMANDING PEOPLE
If you’ve ever found yourself being with someone mildly controlling, run. You need a confident person who is self sufficient in their own life, and not getting in the way of your goals. Just make sure you give them the time they deserve.
