She doesn’t have to be perfect, just perfect for you – but how do you know when you’ve found her? Here are 10 signs to watch for...

She builds you up;
You know the type of girl that likes to make you look stupid or small in front of other people? Well, she’s not one of them. In fact, she builds your confidence back up when you’ve taken a knock and you feel like a better version of yourself when she’s around.

She doesn't try to change you;
A woman who starts asking you to change little things will never accept you for who you are. She doesn’t try to control who your friends are, how you dress, what your hobbies or what you do for a job. She accepts you for you – just as you do her.

She’s your biggest cheerleader
When you went for that promotion at work, she helped you work on your interview technique. And when you got the job no one was happier for you. She might be competitive at board games but when it matters, she wants you to win every time.

You admire her;
It could be her skills on the dance floor, her business acumen or her superior knowledge of contemporary art. What’s important is that you admire things about her and feel proud that she’s with you. And you’re happy to be her biggest champion, just as she is yours.

She respects your space;
Some women like to control your time but she’s different. She gives you space and time to follow your passions – without making you feel guilty. She values her own freedom too and understands that spending time apart can make your time together even more enjoyable.

You can talk it through;
You feel confident enough in the relationship to tell her when she’s upset you or when she’s left the top off the toothpaste. What’s more, she can – and does – tell you about things you do that annoy her. Strangely, you can take the criticism because you know she loves you.

She makes you laugh;
It’s often what attracts us to a woman to begin with and having a shared sense of humour can keep your relationship going through the tough times. If she makes you laugh out loud and the world seems a brighter place when she’s around, hang on to her.

She does it for you;
You know that sex isn’t everything in a relationship and your libidos are bound to change over time - but when it comes down to it, you can’t imagine having anyone else’s arms (or legs) wrapped around you. And you can’t wait to get tangled up in them again.

You can compromise;
If you’ve found a way to work out small issues in your relationship, there’s a good chance you’ll be able to work your way through the tougher challenges when they come along. Being able to talk, listen and compromise is a skill every relationship needs in order to thrive.

You only have eyes for her;
You’re not interested in that cute girl from Accounts, or the woman on the train who keeps smiling at you. There’s no other woman who can come close. If it feels exciting and reassuringly ‘right’ just thinking about her, you know you’ve found someone special.
