As unfortunate as it might be, a lot of us tend to take the relationships that we’re in for granted – and we only ever really realize how good we have something the moment that we lose it. And you never want that to happen to you in your relationship. Your partner might be so great in making you feel comfortable and stable in your love, that you don’t feel the struggle at all. And since you don’t feel that struggle, you might not realize just how special your relationship really is. And when that’s the case, it’s likely that you are going to end up taking your relationship for granted.
You never want to be complacent in your romance. You don’t want to be one of those people who will be looking back at your old relationship thinking about just how good you had it and how you’re never going to get it back. You have to always realize just how blessed you are when you’re in a great relationship with someone. You must always be mindful of how great you have it so that you will work like hell to keep things the way they are. The key is in being able to recognize the aspects of your relationship that make it great. And you have to know greatness wen you see it; otherwise, it’s all just going to go over your head.
And failure to appreciate something good is always a tragedy. You never want your partner to feel like you don’t value just how hard he works for you and your relationship. You never want him to feel like he isn’t important to you; that his efforts don’t really impress you. These are the 9 signs that you have a great partner and that you’re in the best relationship of your life.

2. He doesn’t shy away from his responsibilities and obligations.
He’s always the type of guy you can rely on to be responsible in the relationship. He is always going to be accountable to whatever he tells you. He is always going to try his best to live up to his words. He will never deliberately make you a promise that he doesn’t intend on keeping.
