Celebrity style obsessions : check out which a-listers can’t enough of their fashionable addictions!

In some relationships, you can feel too scared to plan something six weeks in the future, let alone six months

Wanting the same things long-term — whether it’s having kids, a house, or lots of vacations — will help you through any obstacles you may face

Bridget knew exactly where she stood with Mark Darcy, didn't she? You want to be with someone who likes you, just the way you are, that you can be yourself completely around

More importantly, like a girlfriend. You don't worry about grossing him out, or boring him with work gossip, or revealing TMI, because you're close. Closer than close. You're best friends, in fact! And that level of friendship, trust and comfort is exactly what you need to make a relationship work. As Nietsche said, “it's not a lack of love, but a lack of friendship that makes unhappy marriages

It's not all ripping each others' clothes off and chatting about your feelings, is it? Sometimes you just want to sit and watch Gogglebox together, sometimes you want to sit in companionable silence while you flick through your magazines, or him to wipe up as you wash the dishes. It ain't all romcom glamour - but it doesn't bother you, because you're happy

… and vice versa. If he is out with his mates one night, you want to feel confident enough in your relationship that you trust him to behave. Same goes for him when you're away with the girls, obviously. And no, it's not an excuse to say "I trust him, I just don't trust his friends" - because that's pretty much the same thing

If parents, friends, siblings and relatives can see how happy you make each other, you know it’s going to last. Just try to get them to tone it down with the "WHEN ARE YOU GETTING MARRIED?" stuff

her family as well. And, by 'family', we mean all the important people in your lives. The best friend who's like a brother to him, the colleague who's like a sister to you, your mums, your dads… life is so much easier when everyone gets along

Whenever something amazing - or terrible happens - he's the one you want to tell first. And vice versa

Mmhmm, yup. You don't want someone who lies to you, sugarcoats the truth or agrees with everything you say to make you happy. Trust us. you need someone who praises you when you deserve it, who isn't afraid to call you out when you're being an idiot and is willing to challenge your viewpoint, while respecting you have your own opinion

Sure, it's nice to get some space every once in a while - but you're happy to admit that life is better with him or her around. Alone time is healthy, but so is wanting to giggle and chat with your favourite person in the world after a rough day at work

Seen Juno? The best life lesson of that film was this: "Look, in my opinion, the best thing you can do is find a person who loves you for exactly what you are. Good mood, bad mood, ugly, pretty, handsome, what have you, the right person is still going to think the sun shines out your ass. That's the kind of person that's worth sticking with

Whether you've powered through a long-distance relationship, helped one another through an illness, or something completely difference, you know that, as a couple, you can handle anything. Life partnership isn't all red roses and sweet nothings; you need to be able to handle each other at your worst. Because that, as Marilyn Monroe has said, is when you know you deserve each other at your best

And, more importantly, you're on the SAME team. Life presents us with plenty of battles, so make sure you choose someone who's willing to fight them alongside you

Yup, simple as. It's not the wedding you're looking forward to, it's all the stuff that comes after that; the big moments - like the birth of your first child - to the small stuff, like picking out a sofa for your living room. Through the silly times to the meaningful ones, you know you're with your soulmate - and you're confident you've got what it takes to go the distance
