[Q4All]: What Is a "Fulfilling Relationship" to You?

Texastentialism · 2018-09-29T14:17:38+00:00

One in which we have good sexual chemistry, enjoy each other's company, have each other's backs and have a shared vision for the future.

I want a six-foot tall redheaded nympho with an F cup, about 10 years older than me, and who's into incest roleplay and watersports.

Male.

A relationship where both partners meet the needs and most or all of the wants of the other, either by consciously striving to do so or because some innate element of their being satisfies the other party, and where the needs/wants of each partner don't contradict each other.

For example, it's going to be easier to have a fulfilling relationship where one partner gets satisfaction from being looked after in some way (could be financially, emotionally, physically, take your pick) and the other likes taking care of their SO in that specific way than it will when both partners are clashing over the same role.

Shared values and goals.

Any relationship problem can be reduced to differing values or goals CMV

I come from from my amazingly fulfilling job to my nice 1br apartment in the city. I kick off my heels, take off my bra and clean my face of makeup. I grab a cold crisp sparkling water from the fridge and snack on chips. i sit on my loveseat next to my hot and weird bf who also lives with me. we talk about our days and we start having amazing foreplay that leads to sex. its about 20 mins tops. We share a laugh or two and smooch. He goes about the rest of his day and we don't really speak for another several hours. I shower and I can wear sweatpants and sweaters cuz i'm freezing and won't touch the thermostat. He thinks I'm sexy anyway. I pop open my laptop to IRC with friends. He does not bother me the rest of the evening. At 1:30am I sign off IRC and get into bed and cuddle him to my liking. He says goodnight. <3

I'm a man. Any relationship with someone you find attractive and has a compatible personality type is pretty much automatically guaranteed to be fulfilling

"Compatible personality type" varies from person to person. To me, the only women worth dating are ESFJs (maybe ISFJs as well), but I suspect an INTJ would hate that

One with a mentally, emotionally, and physically well man in which we support one another, have fun, fuck frequently, and have compatible future goals.

I'm a woman

Female.

I want a teammate. Someone who pushes me to be better and helps carry the weight od life's struggles.

Edit: oh, am ENFP, BF is INTP. I prefer NTs over every other type.

Male.

Loyalty and sacrifice.

Without any of these your relationship is doomed to fail. In relationships that fail it’s usually because someone is unwilling to be loyal (cheating) or unwilling to sacrifice. Which is sad but thats life.

Man. They say men have two heads (and often think with the wrong one.) What I view as a fulfilling relationship is if both my heads are satisfied. The two are equally important.

My lower brain will be happy as long as I am getting my physiological need for sex satisfied. My partner needs to be attractive and the default answer to sex should always be yes.

My upper brain will be happy with the relationship when we are each others complement that makes life easier. Yin and Yang so to speak. Traditionally this would be the breadwinner/housewife dynamic. But I don't really care how things are distributed, just that they are. In an ideal relationship, the specialization and distribution of labor would make it so that life inside the relationship would just as pleasurable as life single, but only taking half the work.

Female. A spouse who makes your life better and one where you make his better too. That is the short of it.

I do not want a relationship based on secular love but one based on the New Testament version of love translated into a marriage operating within the Christian marriage framework found in the Bible.

This is not a subtle intro or attempt to convert because I'm atheist.

I've been married for a while and used to have people ask me IRL for marriage advice. I never fully understood why they were failing until I realized that my idea of love is based on religious values.

Everyone who seeks to enter in a LTR or marriage in my case needs a road map or game plan followed by both. We went with Christianity's description of love and marriage and it is our foundation.

A large pepperoni and 2 liter of Dr Pepper from Dominoes and a packed bowl.

I'm a guy. What is fulfilling to me is being with someone who I have a strong emotional and intellectual bond with, who I feel like I'm a best friend with, and who is physically attractive to me.

RockinSocksII · 2018-09-29T17:12:49+00:00

Female.

A fulfilling relationship to me is one where you're comfortable around a person; you never feel like you're going to accidentally say something that upsets them. You can come to a compromise when you disagree on something.

Also, sex e'ryday.

flamingoinghome · 2018-09-29T17:55:46+00:00

I'm a woman.

A relationship where we love talking to each other and can do so for hours; where we have good and frequent sex (or, if we're apart, long-distance sex stuff); where we can trust each other; where we want the same kind of future; where we're both a part of each other's lives as a bigger whole; where the relationship makes both of us less anxious and neurotic, instead of more.

yasee · 2018-09-29T23:26:49+00:00

it's like where you introduce each other to cool things and do cool stuff together and you have fun and you have sex and you make each other feel better when you're bummed out and wherever that person is, it feels like home

Willow-girl · 2018-09-30T00:24:37+00:00

A guy who fixes things while I clean things, lol.

ThisIsJustATr1bute · 2018-10-03T06:01:17+00:00

I’m a woman. Other than the top comment, a man who’s a gentleman but we can still mercilessly roast each other.
