We all love differently. For some of us, going to an exotic island with our partner is the best damn thing while for others nothing can beat a Grey’s Anatomy marathon. Love can’t be confined to a singular definition, which is precisely the best thing about it.
We all know different type of couples around us. From the party animals to the emo ones, they have somehow found their perfect (and sometimes, not-so-perfect) match. Chances are that you and your partner could be one of these couples as well! You can be an alpha couple and a long-distance one, both at the same time. Though, we are pretty sure that the two of you would fall under at least one of these categories. Have a look and decide what kind of couple are you.

8. The long-distance couple
I’m already feeling bad for you! You are going through one of the toughest phases in your relationship. Long-distance is the most demanding phase of love and can drive us mad at times. You have to be present in two places simultaneously. You take care of your schedule only to talk to your partner for a few minutes every day. You go to bed every night, hoping to have your significant other by your side. You crave for their touch and can do anything at all to simply hold them at times.
Embrace this phase because this will teach you the power of love. You will value your partner more than ever. Each and every moment that is spent with them will become a memory. If you can survive a long-distance relationship, you can survive anything!
9. The we-hate-kids couple
We all know at least one couple that is not open to the idea of having kids (or getting married). They don’t like to have kids. They can’t even take care of their friend’s kids as well. And you know what – it’s fine. It is their life and they have made their own choices.
If you are one of those couples who can’t stand kids and like to be a rebel your whole life, then embrace yourself. At least you know who you are and know what you want. Most of the people in this world are just confused and can’t decide what they want. You like to enjoy each and every minute of your life at its best and can turn the mundane into magical. This makes the two of you quite spectacular!

Can’t decide if you are together or should you just move on?
Well, don’t feel alone. There are plenty of couples out there that keep on playing the on-again-off-again game. Your friends can’t get it and they might even judge you for your indecisive nature. Every time you try to be with your partner, some or other thing breaks your relationship. There is nothing wrong with it, but sooner or later you need to decide what you want. You can’t simply let anyone walk in and out of your life like that, right?
11. The old school couple
You believe in singing Spanish lullabies to your partner and watch them sleeping for hours. You believe in the age-old institution of dating and like to take things one step at a time. From holding hands to sharing that first kiss – everything means so much more to you. You know how important love is and will never do anything to break your partner’s heart. You have a true lover’s heart and are one of those people who believe in writing intimate poems to your partner than uploading a Facebook status. You are living an ultimate romantic fantasy. The kind of love and principles you have are only what others dream of.
