You have been in a steady relationship for a few years now and things appear to be stagnant. You would like to move on to the next stage of the relationship but you do not know if both of you are right for each other and that the relationship is going to last long and strong.

Check out the below to test if your relationship is going the way you want to. Check more than 6 off the list and you better get used to your partner, because he or she is likely the one you will marry.

You give each other support
Support means everything to a great relationship. When your bae supports you and your decisions, he shows that he trust you to make the right choices. When he consistently celebrates your success, gets you through tough decisions, stays by your side during tough times and talk through everything with you, you’ve got a great catch.

You communicate well
Both of you communicate well. You speak the same language so to speak. You know each other well and can understand what the other is conveying through speech. You have no problem telling your other half what you experience and can say the ultimate gross things to each other.

You express gratitude to each other
You love each other so you know how to say thanks when your bae does something for you. When you say thanks, you express your gratitude to your bae that you are totally grateful that he/she is in your life. Words of thanks are almost as important as words of love. So make sure you say thanks the next time your bae did something nice for you.

You trust each other
You have implicit trust in each other. You know he/she wouldn’t cheat and you also will not cheat on him/her. You have absolute trust and never doubt about the relationship. You will not spy on him/her and make your relationship like a detective movie by asking him/her where they are going every day.

You are honest with each other
Related to the above point, it is very important to be honest with each other. It is always a hand-in-hand concept that when you are honest with each other, you will trust each other implicitly. Tell your bae if you are going out with a friend of the other gender. If you are honest, then it is obvious you have nothing to hide.

You do not take things too seriously
Both of you are happy-go-lucky with life and do not take things too seriously, especially when thing goes wrong. A couple who can laugh at their mistakes and make jokes out of each other will be a happy couple. A happy couple definitely can last long in a strong relationship.

You can do nothing together
You find doing nothing together absolutely thrilling. You can be walking hand-in-hand by the beach doing nothing, and you feel completely at peace. There is no awkward moment and you can bask in the presence of your bae without speaking a single word.

You give each other space
You do not crowd each other with your presence every day. Both of you have your own lives outside the relationship and you do not expect the other to be constantly be by your side. Giving each other space is important as it allows the love to breathe and grow stronger with each passing day.

You make up quickly after a fight
You guys will have fights, that is common. But you make it up real quick. You do not like to be angry with your bae, because it is just so unnatural not to be talking with him/her. You do not want to be upset with him/her long and hence will also make up quickly right after a fight.

You kiss a lot
Kissing is a great love bloomer. When you kiss, you affirm to each other that you love deeply. Physical touch is important in a relationship. If you are not comfortable with your bae holding your hands and kissing you, you may need to rethink the relationship.

So, how do you and your bae score in this relationship test? If you have passed with flying colours, go ahead and move on to the next stage already!
