"If you&amp;#39;ve got a guy you think might be the one for you, you&amp;#39;ve got to check out this list of ways to tell your relationship is the right one.\nPinterestFacebookOur friends over at the Huffington Post have put together a major checklist&amp;#8212;31 things!&amp;#8212;to examine whether or not you&amp;#39;re in a relationship that&amp;#39;s the right one. Author Margaret Wheeler Johnson is a woman after our Glamour hearts, separating the list into Dos and Don&amp;#39;ts. Below are a few points that particularly resonated with me.\nIt&amp;#39;s the right relationship if\u2026.\n__You DO: __\nPut it all on the line. &amp;quot;If you&amp;#39;re not risking having your heart broken, you&amp;#39;re not doing it right.&amp;quot; I know I&amp;#39;m still feeling hesitant to put myself out there after getting hurt in the past, but I like to think that when I find the right guy, I won&amp;#39;t be afraid anymore.\nDivide and Conquer. I love this point the author makes about using each partner&amp;#39;s different strengths to make the relationship work. The organized person pays the bill, the more outgoing one manages social events. It reminds me a lot about what my own dad had to say about teamwork in relationships!\n__Have object permanence.__This is a concept of child psychology, which is &amp;quot;the idea that an object doesn&amp;#39;t vanish when they can no longer see it.&amp;quot; Applied to couples, this means you aren&amp;#39;t afraid to leave the nest for fear your guy won&amp;#39;t be there when you get back. I always feel worried about couples who seem afraid to leave each other&amp;#39;s sides.\nYou DON&amp;#39;T:\nHide anything more significant than a surprise party from each other. It&amp;#39;s not the first time we&amp;#39;ve heard that honesty is the best policy, but it&amp;#39;s so true that you shouldn&amp;#39;t feel like you need to hide things from the right guy.\nThink you&amp;#39;re superior. &amp;quot;The best relationships make you feel that you&amp;#39;ve convinced a person more exceptional than you to love you.&amp;quot; It&amp;#39;s OK to know where you have strengths your guy doesn&amp;#39;t, like we talked about above in terms of dividing and conquering, but you should both equally feel that the other is a catch.\nHave much drama. Sure, the occasional fight is normal (and later, even listed as a Do!), but &amp;quot;You know the clich?\uFFFD: The person worth your tears won&amp;#39;t make you cry. Usually.&amp;quot; It&amp;#39;s a rookie mistake (that I&amp;#39;ve been personally guilty of) to confuse major highs and lows with real passion and love.\nCheck out the full list of all 31 ways over on HuffPost Women to see how your relationship measures up, and then come back and let us know how you did.\nGive us a run down: how many of the 31 things do you have with your guy? Are you missing any? How confident are you that you&amp;#39;re in the right relationship?\nOther ways to know:\nListen Up: It&amp;#39;s Not True Love Unless You&amp;#39;re Doing These 7 Things\nI Knew He Loved Me When\u2026\n5 Guys Confess: How They Knew They Found The One\nPhoto: Thinkstock"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
