4. She is empathetic and nurturing
Nurturing doesn’t imply she is there to feed you and it doesn’t mean she has to be motherly towards you. It’s enough to be concerned about you every once in a while or worried if you’re in trouble.
5. She is honest and supportive
Honesty cannot be the missing element in a romantic relationship. Sometimes radical honesty will get you both far, if you are well-intended.

What were the odds of finding someone that shares your taste in music and arts in general, who also has the same hobbies as you and who shares your worldview?
You don’t experience something like this twice in your life. Hold on to her!
