The Art Of Finding A Partner: Part 2 of 2 is your guide to self-discovery in relationships. Join us as we dive into questions 6 through 10 that you can ask yourself on your journey to finding the perfect partner.

• Question 6: What is my relationship like with the opposite sex?
  We we explore your relationship with the opposite sex and its impact on your search for a partner. The influence of Sigmund Freud's Oedipus Complex is discussed, as well as whether it's okay for males and females to just be friends. Reflect on your past experiences and how they may have shaped your views on relationships with the opposite sex.
• Question 7: What type of dependency am I in a relationship?
  We dive into the different types of dependency in relationships, including codependency, independency, and interdependency, and ask you to consider if you want a partner who is codependent, independent, or interdependent, and if you are offering the same in return.
• Question 8: Do I take personal responsibility in life and do I hold myself accountable?
  This question addresses personal responsibility and accountability in all aspects of your life, including relationships, as it is important to consider if you hold yourself accountable for your actions and if you are willing to take personal responsibility in a relationship.
• Question 9: What is on my partner wish list, and do I offer that to someone else?
  In this question, we explore what you want in a partner and if you are offering those same qualities to someone else. Reflect on your partner's wish list and consider if you are providing the qualities they are seeking.
• Question 10: What would my prior partners say about me?
  This final question asks you to reflect on your past relationships and consider what your former partners would say about you. This can provide valuable insight into your own behavior and what you may want to improve upon in future relationships.
