Introduction: Why you might regret marrying a "nice person"

As you enter your 30s and start thinking, "I seriously want to look for a marriage partner," there is a trap many people fall into. That is, they choose a marriage partner based solely on superficial conditions like "kindness," "looks," and "annual income," or the "thrill" felt during early dates.

However, the essence of married life lies not in events or excitement, but in the mundane daily life of how we can maturely deal with the countless small issues that arise between the two of us. A temporarily nice person may not maintain their kindness under stress.

The key to finding a marriage partner you won't regret is in "sustainability."

We at Yoitoki propose a way to identify a marriage partner based on the foundation of "safety" and "trust" that lies beyond the excitement. In this article, we will explain three important principles for exploring a partner's "essence" from a psychological perspective.

1. Assessing with emotional "stress resistance" and "resilience"

Living with a marriage partner is "joint response to trials"90% of the time

In many cases, people are looking to share "fun things" with their partner. However, what you should truly assess to determine if someone is suitable as a marriage partner is how they respond to "trials and stress," and how quickly they can recover (bounce back) from that situation.

A partner with high emotional maturity can view challenging situations as "our problem" rather than "blaming the other person."

[How to assess] Explore behavior patterns under stress

To assess the stress resistance of a marriage partner, try asking specific questions about their past difficult experiences or how they currently handle their emotions.

Is your potential marriage partner okay? 1-minute checklist

Let's self-evaluate your partner's resilience using this checklist.

• When talking about past failures or difficulties, does the partner speak of it as "my learning" rather than "blaming others"? (Yes/No)
• After a minor argument, how long does it take for the partner to regain their composure and suggest a resolution? (Short / Long)
• When apologizing, do they empathize with the emotional pain first without inserting excuses? (Yes/No)

If you lack confidence in these checks, it may be a sign that there are doubts about the "sustainability" of your marriage partner.

🔥 YoitokiYoitoki Action: Unmask false kindness This "resilience," rather than superficial kindness, is what YoitokiYoitoki emphasizes in deep compatibility analysis. If you feel anxious about your marriage candidate's stress resistance, consider whether "can this person be a partner to overcome trials together?" and test YoitokiYoitoki for personality and value matching. Start searching for a marriage candidate with essential compatibility now.

Yoitoki's Perspective: Stable individuals prioritize "resilience"

Users of Yoitoki seeking serious relationships (especially those in their 30s and beyond) prioritize "people who can recover properly after crying" over "people who are always smiling." This is because they are unconsciously searching for "stability in life" after marriage.

2. Choosing based on "tolerance range" rather than "matching values"

It is important to assess whether values are "the same" or "negotiable"

While matching preferences like "food tastes" and "hobbies" can be enjoyable, they do not form the foundation of married life. There is no such thing as a completely value-matching marriage partner. The crucial point is how much both parties can "tolerate" each other when their values differ.

Especially in long-term partnerships, it is necessary to confirm whether the tolerance ranges of the following three core values overlap.

[How to assess] Explore the boundaries of three core values

1. Financial Sense: The balance between "spending" and "investing for the future"

Discrepancies in financial sense are among the top causes of divorce. It is essential to know in advance where the two's "philosophies about money" may clash.

• Question: "What is your ideal balance between 'spending' for yourself and 'saving/investing' for future security? For example, let me know if you have a specific goal like wanting to save a certain percentage of your take-home income."
• Analysis: The important aspect is not the amount, but the sense of balance between "responsibility for the future" and "enjoying current life."

2. Time Usage: The boundary between "shared time" and "alone time"

The desire to "always be together" can be attractive at first, but for self-reliant adults, the relationship with a marriage partner should not become a hindrance to growth.

• Question: "How much 'alone time' do you think a partner should have? In this case, what kind of respect would you like to have regarding the frequency of contact and how that time is spent?"
• Analysis: Let's identify a healthy balance between autonomy and dependency. A response of "It's okay as long as you let me know in advance" indicates mature communication skills.

3. Family and Parenting Views: Flexibility in "role sharing"

It's essential to have awareness not only about whether to have children in the future but also about the "role sharing" if you do have them.

• Question: "If we were to raise children while both working, what are your thoughts on the division of household chores and childcare? If you have specific images like 'the one who's better does it' or 'we share equally,' please let me know."
• Analysis: It is crucial to assess whether there are fixed notions like "this is what women should do," and whether there is flexibility to "decide through discussion."

Behavior Check: The technique of dialogue to explore tolerance range

Discrepancies in these core values can be very challenging to repair after marriage. During a date, take the opportunity to bring up specific examples of actions to engage in a conversation that explores "boundaries."

[Action]: Try asking, "If I buy an expensive item for my hobby, how would you react?" If the partner responds with "It's okay as long as it's within the rules we decided together," it's evidence that they have a tolerance range and flexibility as a marriage partner.

💡 YoitokiYoitoki Action: Verify the "tolerance range" of values A user of YoitokiYoitoki, Aiko, met a partner with a wide tolerance range for financial sense through value analysis, achieving a marriage without compromise. Check if your non-negotiable values are within your partner's tolerance range. Start testing for "deep value matching" at YoitokiYoitoki to avoid unnecessary misunderstandings.

3. Is there "mutual effort" and "emotional equality"?

The fairness of "giving love" and "receiving love"

Couples whose married life lasts long do not have one side enduring but are in a state where "both equally put effort into maintaining the relationship," which we call the "principle of mutual effort."

Importantly, it is not only visible efforts like household chores and childcare, but also "emotional labor," such as listening to the other's worries and remembering family anniversaries, that should be shared equally. It is essential for a marriage partner to have the willingness to share these invisible emotional burdens.

[How to assess] Explore unconditional love and fairness

Specific test: "Thank you" and "next suggestion" during a date

• Assessment: If you paid for the meal and planned the date, does your partner show the intention to contribute not just by saying "thank you," but also by suggesting "What would you like to do next?" or "Next time, I'll make the reservation"?
• Psychology: A person who understands mutual effort will respond with actions that indicate they want to invest in the relationship in return for received kindness. A one-sided passive attitude suggests a risk of burdens being disproportionately borne in future life.

Important Question:

• "When we have significant disagreements or conflicts, what do you prioritize most for resolution, 'emotional understanding (empathy)' or 'creating specific rules (practical solutions)'?"
• Analysis: A mature marriage partner should value both (first emotional understanding, then practical rule-making).

Final Check: Fairness test of mutual effort

Does your partner have the willingness to share "emotional labor" equally with you?

• Is your partner actively trying to remember the names of your family and friends? (Yes/No)
• When you are tired, do they show invisible consideration, like making coffee without you having to say anything? (Yes/No)
• Are you both consciously alternating the initiative in preparing and planning dates? (Yes/No)

A true marriage partner is someone who acts to alleviate your burdens before you ask.

FAQ: Common questions about selecting a marriage partner

Q1. How can I be sure if my partner has sufficient stress resistance?

A. It’s difficult to have "certainty" in a short period, but by observing "consistency" and "speed of recovery," you can assess the likelihood.

• ① Observe consistency: When small stressors (like train delays or restaurant reservation mistakes) occur, check whether they can calmly handle it each time or if they become emotional every time. The more consistently calm they are, the higher their reliability as a marriage partner.
• ② Recovery speed: When minor arguments or disagreements arise, it's vital that they don't carry negative feelings into the next day and can promptly approach a solution as "our problem." Especially, a suitable marriage partner will view stress as a problem to share together, without blaming you.

Q2. What are the tips for quickly assessing compatibility with a marriage partner?

A. To assess compatibility in a short time, focus on "emergency response" and "future questions."

1. Observe emergency responses: Watch their panic level and problem-solving attitude when unexpected small troubles occur, such as restaurant reservation mistakes or getting lost.
2. Future questions: Instead of superficial questions about common hobbies or favorite foods, ask about "life plans in five years," "views on career," and "family values," using questions like those presented in Principle 2 to check if tolerance ranges overlap.

Q3. If there is a significant discrepancy in financial sense, should I give up on marriage?

A. There’s no need to give up, but if the "tolerance range" doesn’t match, it can be difficult. The key is not "annual income" but the "philosophy towards money." For example, if one is frugal and the other is a spender, what matters is whether they can set mutual goals for "future savings" and "limits on acceptable spending" and adhere to them. Assess whether they can flexibly respond to clearly set rules through discussion.

Q4. How reliable is the analysis from Yoitoki?

A. Yoitoki’s "Heart-Connecting AI" analyzes thousands of data points based on psychology, including not only traditional profile information (hobbies and occupations) but also "user dialogue tendencies," "depth of responses to values," and "patterns of emotional vocabulary." This allows it to score not just on commonalities but also on "resilience" and "mutual contribution" that are essential for the sustainability of married life, providing deeper and more scientifically reliable compatibility suggestions than typical apps.
