Avoiding the wrong person is far better than finding the right person. I hope people understand it sooner. You won't die if they who you think to be right don't come to you. You might think of dying if they who seem right at the beginning come and later leave you.

So, Looks is not a actual criteria to choose the right partner...
1. Attraction not good thing select partner 2. Assement first attachment later 3.Avoiding red flags way more important than collecting green flags 4.2 categories are important to assess person Relationship outcome levels High important traits Relationship outcome level 1) Positive it protects you from tough situation if they have 2) synergy of dreams and desires Ask their short term, middle time,long time goal check cohesive with your goal , it shouldn't be opposite end ,if its it again red flag 3) negative How well both of you managing emotion during conflict? To solve problem Through listen to partner Accept mistake Try to resolve Dont allow High negative emotion Inability to resolve conflict High important traits 1.Equality of status Rules for both of us 2.Unconditional respect Are they treating you with respect 3.high priority for you and your Relationship 1st priority it determines how much time and energy they are giving on you 4. Loyalty Are they loyal to you ? Know their past ? Why they will be loyal to you ? 5. Commitment Are they saying I will break up ,or they have some tolerance 6.honesty and transparency Are this person is liar

attractiveness is not bad but it should be reciprocated. else sex life will suffer. i have had two girls confess to me but I didn't find them attractive. now after many years, I do. so a woman is fine if shes shows equal interest in you
Attraction is most important. Always remember that. You are choosing a romantic partner n not a flatmate, guardian or just friend. Attraction is not always looks.

True… Attraction is more towards personality and how we feel with the person.. if we are attracted to someone we can spend 5-6 hours easily.. however if we r not attracted we can’t even tolerate the person more than 1 hours.. I feel we are even attracted to our friends.. there r ppl who we can’t even talk to

I trusted my brain the first time and my marriage still failed. Second time around, I'm trusting my gut feelings, and so far so good. There are challenges, but we love each other enough to make it work. I think love is the foundation you need, and the commitment that you will stick through.

Those days love conquers all. Today, compatability conquers all.
We can't say that taking time to choose a partner always leads to successful relationship, so many relationships are successfully going for years with their acceptance in maximum 1 week only if they had really met their perfect match , it’s like a magical bond that never breaks❤😊
Relationship outcome level: 1)Positive 2)Negative 3)Desire of outcome High Importance traits: 1)Equality of status-feelings,wishes etc. 2)Unconditional respect 3)High priority for relationships and you. 4)Give higher attention, and are loyal to you. 5)Ask the reasons for every answer they give. 6)Commitment for life.

Most of time we don't or can't choose our Parents, Teachers, Boss, wife and friends etc in life...but we feel and proudly believe that we have chosen one...
basically communication is the most important skill in relationship and marriage
Rules for men: 1) Know yourself and be honest in expressing yourself! Don't try hard to impress! You cannot be that impressive person lifelong. Don't put efforts in this phase where you are trying to getting to know each other! 2) Similar ideas or common goals with respect to finance means your relationship has already scored 50% marks. 3) Excitement fades, monotony prevails and committment only saves. Stay committed to your partner! This is where you need to put in efforts. You will experience a different version of love when you just start caring for each other and be peaceful with each other's company. 4) Choose your partner who is attractive for your eyes but not for the society's standards! Physical attraction is essential to engage in physìcal relationship, especially if you are a man. You have a visual stimulus that triggers the neural system and makes your little boy stand. You cannot fake to make your partner happy. 5) Accept that you cannot have it all. Be a little bit of stoic here!

I'm really stuck at the 6) points you made. Physical attraction is important because as a man I need to feel excited about physical stuff. Any guidance on how to look at this requirement in an arranged marriage? Two girls with almost the same nature but one is okayish looking with a good salary and the other is good looking but has an average job. I should be looking at long-term stability as well but at the same time confused if I can ignore the looks.

Just two days back, I got cheated on by someone who was looking for all these traits in me whilst himself being an absolute pretentious man with a habit of compulsively lying. This video is truly amazing tho. And when Shridhar says “don’t forget your deal breakers”, it hit home. It’s no shit. Before going into that relationship I was well aware of my needs and boundaries but as soon as I caught feelings, everything started to become hazy. Anyway, it’s sad we can’t undo what’s already happened. Although I am deeply hurt right now, I know I will be fine in a couple months/years. If anything, this was a huge lesson for me. Love and strength to anyone else who is going through the same pain right now. Just know, it wasn’t your fault, you’re not alone and this too shall pass❤️

In my experience, attraction can develop over time. Like u find a guy visually unattractive at first but then you start finding them cute once u get to know them.
I have been thru a failed arranged marriage. I can vouch for all that you have said to be true. But will add one more point, not giving in to attachment stems up from having a high self esteem. No amount of knowledage will work otherwise. To be able to love yourself alone and not only when validated in a relationship.
Sir, most of your videos are superb, but this one is gold. Take a bow. I wish we had something like this earlier..
Very very useful & explained in a way that's easy to digest. Absolutely loved the content & structure
So perfectly explained. Amazing !!! This is giving 100 % clarity
Explanation is top notch....i have suffered all those things in toxic relationship...you have to be mentally strong to overcome trauma and rejection...and i after few years i not regret my decisions
What an Amazing Video Sridhar- this comes at the right time and your first point on attraction was so apt. Loved watching the brilliant tips. Thank you 🙏

I have ignored physical attraction and dated based on other qualities (reliability, consistency, attentiveness, good listener, thoughtful etc) and resented the lack of attraction the longer we were together until they started to actually repulse me. Two have still ended up to be narcissists. Really hesitant to take that advice again.

You explain very well.. if we talk a person for 4,5 Times, slowly we feels connection ( sigreet habit) but it doesn't mean we are competable . Nice 👍 explanation,nice research 👍
Very very true,each and every word is worth understanding Many of us don't find red flags, sometimes our parents also do hurry,all they say,sab theek ho jaata hai, But avoiding the wrong person doesn't mean we have to fight back,amecabily partners should get separated, but in our indian families, after marriage specially, couples don't get separated amicably, specially lady has to fight for her rights, that's the irony

You speak wonderfully sir . I watch your videos as they are very interesting . My daughter is MS OBSTETRIC AND GYNECOLOGY . Selecting the right person becomes difficult when you have two to three choice .Dilemma to choose . Arranged marriages very difficult to decide because very less time to assess. Ultimately it is big gamble i feel as a mother of a girl. Whatever homework one does risk remains . Only God helps us if our karma is good. I cant stop admiring your personality sir .

Very insightful.
So far the best video on this topic, how easily he summarised and explained alllllll the concepts. Loved it
Very well explained
As I work on myself, I am attracted to values in a person, also how loving accepting they are to themselves
It’s almost impossible but worth it to try.
You speak as much as a man can be perfect. 🎉
virgin couples love & try to know each other like new born babies ,they are new to opposite sex emotions, feelings, bodies, and thus have lots of butterflies , anticipation, and goosebumps even while holding their partner's hand. They will do lots of mistakes with each other initially and there the fun lies ,they play with each other like rabbits . But if one partner is non virgin then he/she will laugh at his/her partner and cannot love back in the same way. That's why a virgin deserves another virgin
Thank You So Much!!
I saw this video a little late and made the same mistake, chose a guy on attraction and height... the ever worse decision of my life. He just walked out one day silently leaving me devastated. I'm still trying to recover from the trauma. May GOD heal my soul.
