I talk about four levels of importance in any relationship or any person, any dynamic you have with a person. The first one is admiration. That's just you admiring someone. It doesn't mean very much. They may not even know you exist. The second one is mutual attraction. That's when you actually know you like each other. The third one is commitment. That's when you don't just like each other, but you're actually saying yes to the relationship. And the fourth one is compatibility. Because actually, love isn't all you need. You need two people who actually work well together. Am I good at handling them, and are they good at handling me? Like, that's a pretty. I think that's a pretty good barometer of a relationship.
