Did you make the right
decision being with the partner you’re now with, or should you have chosen
differently? After a bit of thought, this is the best question I’ve come up
with that might get close to providing an answer. It’s a question you don’t
even have to ask out loud – just ask yourself quietly and honestly, and I think
you’ll know.
One more thing before we
get to the question, if you are parents, it’s important that you ask it without
any children in mind – you have to pretend they never existed, because if you
are to accurately get the true answer, you have to ask the question about your
partner with it being intrinsically about them and them only.
The Question
If you could go back to the beginning of high school and live your life
again, but you can resume that life journey with the retention of all you
currently know, would you do everything you could to ensure that you eventually
found and end up with the beloved you are currently with?
I'd say
those that can positively and definitely answer 'yes' are probably the ones
with no regrets, fully satisfied with the person they chose to be with. And
those that answer 'no' are probably not with the right person, and appear to
have deep regrets about who they’ve ended up with.
That's the
kind of seat of the pants reality testing you're going to get when my book on
love is ready for human consumption! J
