People are like puzzle pieces. You search and search for the right ones. You pick up a few that don’t fit and frustratedly place them back in the pile. A few fall on the floor, and you seemingly lose them forever at that point. A few feel impossible to find.

But sometimes, a piece just fits. You don’t have to rotate it around. You don’t have to force it into the space. It just falls into place seamlessly. Sometimes, relationships are like that, too. Sometimes, you just fit, and it’s incredibly clear that you are supposed to be that way.

Here are 26 signs you’re an incredibly compatible couple, according to psychology:

1. Your personalities complement each other well

And you bring out the brightest, most comfortable versions of each other.

2. You appreciate and are genuinely interested in each other’s passions

Even if you don’t understand why he’s so obsessed with Legos.

3. You get along simply as friends, naturally and easily

Even when you do disagree, it’s clear that you’re working towards the same goal: each other’s happiness.

4. You can just talk and be entertained and content with your playful banter

It’s like you guys have your secret language. Having banter, and the ability to laugh at each other, can lead to greater relationship satisfaction, according to research from 2018.

You both have the same vision for what you want your future to look like.

You lay it all out on the table because, for better or for worse, you let your partner see all sides of who you are with confidence and security.

23. You listen to each other

Even if it’s about pointless work drama.

24. You openly admit fault

You’re the first to admit when you’re wrong.

25. You don’t understand some of the issues other couples have

Some couples genuinely don’t seem to like each other and you could never understand why they were still together.

26. You appreciate each other through it all

Because you know that no matter what you face together, you’re supposed to be together. You rock at being best friends, which makes you an unstoppable couple. 

Research from the Gottman Institute states that friendship is the foundation for happy couples. Go give each other a high five or a fist bump, because you’re pretty much killing this whole relationship thing.
