First of all, lot's look at the very obvious benefits when it comes to having someone that you can always hit up with a booty call. Pros For most people, it's the physical aspect. Orgasms are always nice. They make you stress-free and fill you up with happiness hormones that can have an effect on you for up to a couple of hours. How would you not want that all the time? Unfortunately, in most cases, only friends with benefits relationships are the only ones that can provide you with a lot of sex for a long period of time.

Have You Had An "I Could Not Be Happier" Moment? - It Reveals Everything You Want From A Relationship

The simplest way to find out your true intentions when starting a relationship is looking at the things that happened when you were happy.

Yeah, I know, when I tried figuring these kinds of things first I was confused too and when this came to mind I was just like... Duh?




Family

This is usually the most common reason for people in their thirties to get into a relationship and quite honestly, the most logical. The ones who want a stable and reliable partner are also the ones who view family as a core part of a person's life, require a good amount of attention and are very likely caring. (Pro tip: they are the most ideal people to marry if you plan on having kids.)

How you know this is what you want:
You put stability first (in every aspect) and are not afraid to express that. You plan on getting into a long-term relationship each time you go on a date (you don't expect to, you just like to know how a partner would work out in a few years.)

The moment:
Your partner says that they could see themselves start a family with you.

Companionship

A lot of people can't stand being alone and they solve this problem by getting into a relationship. It's completely okay, but they need to know how to handle their feelings, so they don't end up as too dependent on others. They are quite needy, but if those desires are met then they are the most lovable people in the world (just prepare for extreme neediness).

How you know this is what you want:
You seek a lot of attention. I mean it.
You want to be with your partner 24/7 and don't see a problem with it.

The moment:
Curling up in front of a movie together. And knowing that you have a full weekend of this activity ahead of you.

Wealth

Because gold diggers still exist. I'm not here to judge, but if you think this is your only reason to be in a relationship then your partner has to know about it. Discuss the matter, then move on to talking about whether it's okay for the both of you.
Anyhow, gold diggers are generally very materialistic, they speak the gift giving love language, which is understandable, but results in a lot of spent money. Financially they can either be awful or amazing. They either spend a ton or save up so they can use the gains by themselves.

How you know this is what you want:
You probably already know if you're this type, but if not, it's simple:
You look for wealthy people.

The moment:
Your partner buys you whatever you've been asking for.

OR

Your partner gives you a bigger allowance.

Completing life goals

This is usually connected to traveling. But if you're a fitness junkie then it can mean wanting someone to be alongside you while hiking, or taking your special one wall climbing.
Whatever your thing is, you want someone to be there with you and enjoy those moments of success. You want to be standing on the top alongside your partner and say: "I did it!"

How you know this is what you want:
You look for people that take part in your hobbies and are passionate about it. You don't believe that opposites attract, mostly because of your dream of accomplishing goals together.

The moment:
You get ready for whatever hobby you have and look at yourself and your partner. And you see progress.
