Who is an Emotionally Available Partner?

It is sometimes much easier to focus on who is not emotionally available, because usually people who are not available are pretty obvious about it. They don't call, cancel at the last minute, are vague, and always have something more important going on than the relationship .

But what are some characteristics of emotionally available people? It can be a mystery.

Here are just a few qualities to help you get started on your search to identify those people who can show up for you in partnership.

Emotionally available people:

• listen to you
• know how to deal with their emotions
• want you around
• follow through with their commitments

Not all the time - and not perfectly, but these qualties are inherent to the emotionally available type.

So the next time you are with your partner, or out on a date, or mingling, check in to see if the folks you meet are really present.

You deserve a partner who can love you - an emotionally available partner - and they are longing for you as much as you long to share your love with someone special.

Lean, trust, feel, and enjoy. The relationship you desire is out there waiting for you!
