Just started seeing someone but you're not sure if he or she's your type? Perhaps there's some attraction there but how do you know if the person is compatible? For a long term relationship, pure chemistry isn't enough.

Here is what you should search for when looking for a life partner.

1.) Personality. Personality is an exhaustive topic while the compatibilities among all of the personality types is even more complicated. It's much simpler to ask yourself this question: Are you always biting your tongue when you interact with this person?

Perhaps she or he is too hyperactive or maybe the person has no energy at all. Maybe he's an obsessive perfectionist or maybe she is a control freak. Although there are countless ways that personalities can clash, the question is whether your interactions are stressing you.

2.) Social compatibility. If one person is shy and the other is very outgoing, conflict is guaranteed later on in the relationship. Social compatibility will impact the kinds of outings and dates that the both of you will enjoy.

It influences the amount of fun that you'll have at a party. The shy person may not want to be left alone while the other works the room. On the other hand, the outgoing person doesn't like the clinging behavior his partner.

3.) Can you agree with respect to what you value? One person might be involved in a number of civic causes while the other has a laid back type B personality.

Are you both health nuts or are you couch potatoes? Perhaps you're inclined to be very deep and thoughtful about things and your partner is more action oriented. Does your partner resent the missed time together because of your career ambitions?

4.) Financial compatibility. Of the many disputes that couples have, money is most often the subject. Many people carefully manage their money, while others are very free with their spending. Some people are comfortable with financial uncertainty while others cannot live without financial stability.

5.) Is there a rough equivalence in amounts of education? Too large a difference can cause insecurity, and resentment. Someone with little education may tire of hearing the 'big words' of the other person.

The more educated person may feel hamstrung by this. Educational differences also affect how you view the world as well as your job professions.

While this compatibility listing is not exhaustive, stress can result from failing to meet any one of these points. However, having an incompatibility doesn't spell disaster for your relationship. It simply requires a lot more diplomacy and maturity.
