Young people often have a hard time deciding whether the person who they are currently seeing is "the One." While the litany of admirable qualities is recited, the recitation ends with a dull thud, "I don't hear bells." or "He (she) doesn't make my heart sing, ring, zing, etc." My response to this statement is the following instruction:
Close your eyes. Try to imagine your life 5 years out, 10 years out. Does the thought of this person not playing a significant part in your life cause you great pain or at least serious discomfort?
If the answer to this is "yes," bells, heart-singing, etc. is not as important.
If the answer to this is "no," that person is clearly not THE ONE.
