Questions I feel are important to ask in a relationship that don’t involve materialism: • Can we be honest with each other, emotionally vulnerable, raw? • Do I feel safe, free, and open to share myself intimately and sexually with them? • Can they be happy and fulfilled without me? • Do they have passions, goals, drive? • Are they devoted to a spiritual practice? • Is there mental stimulation within our connection? • Do they truly want what’s better for me, outside of what they can give me? • Do we share similar values and visions in many ways (not all ways, they aren’t the same person as me)? • Do they love Mama Earth? • Are they willing to grow together, in the ebbs and flows of life, and be with me even when life feels heavy? • Do we have fun together?
