Introduction: In today’s world, one of the most desired traits in a relationship is a partner who is emotionally available. This trait is universally sought after – by men, women, everyone. If you’re looking for love in 2024 and beyond, your best shot is making sure you’re emotionally available yourself. If you’re uncertain about your emotional availability status, here’s how to tell if you’re on the right track.

You’re Self-Aware: Being self-aware means you can identify what you’re feeling, understand why you feel the way you do, and express those feelings clearly. While perfection isn’t required, being able to do this most of the time is a strong indicator of emotional availability.


You Have Empathy: When someone shares their pain, you don’t brush it off. You genuinely care about their feelings and perspectives. Empathy is a cornerstone of emotional availability.


You Communicate Your Thoughts and Feelings (and You Listen to Others): Emotional availability means you’re not afraid to share your opinions and feelings. Equally important is your ability to listen and consider others’ perspectives. True emotional availability requires both expression and receptiveness.


You Trust Others and You’re Trustworthy: This doesn’t mean blindly trusting anyone. However, if someone proves to be trustworthy, you’re willing to open up. Being a person of integrity, you do what you say you will and stay true to your values.


You’re Able to Be Who You Are: Being emotionally available involves vulnerability and showing your true self, even if it’s outside your comfort zone. Loving yourself enough to put yourself out there, despite potential rejection, is a sign of emotional maturity and availability.
