Relationship Compatibility by the Numbers

NUMEROLOGICAL RELATIONSHIP COMPATIBILITY

NUMBER 1 IN RELATIONSHIPS

Number 1’s will often find that they have many relationships before they settle down as they have high expectations of their partners and will often be disappointed if they find that their mate does not meet these expectations. Number 1’s should be aware that they may be seeking a perfect partner who does not exist. It would be wise for number 1’s to assess what they really want from a relationship and with whom they are likely to achieve this.

Number 1’s should accept their own limitations as well as their partners in order for a relationship to succeed. To maintain a happy and healthy relationship, Number 1’s will need to make a concerted effort to prioritize their relationships and allow time in their lives to spend with their partners.

People born with the Number 1 energy often need a lot of reassurance and praise from their partners in order to boost their self-esteem. Number 1’s should remember, however, that their partners will need this to be reciprocated.

Relationships will tend not to be the priority in the lives of Number 1’s as they do not regard it as an area in which success can be measured. The focus of their lives will tend to be careers or material gain and this can put relationships in the background. As a result Number 1’s are frequently loners and are often content to be so.

Number 1's who stray from their paths often end up in clingy co-dependent relationships.
Number 1s like their independence, so as much as they may enjoy time spent on activities with loved ones, they are just as happy to tackle projects or work on things of interest in their own company, and are comfortable with being alone.

1s need a partner who is not clingy or needy, and who is willing to have hobbies and interests of their own to pursue as they may find themselves spending time along while the 1 person pursues their own solo interests and goals. Either that, or they must be willing to go along with 1s pioneering spirit and join them on their endeavours and adventures.
An ideal partner for those under the 1 influence would be someone who enjoys balancing their time between their own interests and those of their partner.

Number 1s need a solid home base from which they can bravely venture forth into the world, knowing that things are running smoothly on the home front in their absence.

1s are not quick to settle down with the first potential partner to cross their path but would rather sample what the world has to offer them, then choose from the pickings. 1s often learn through trial and error (much like 5s) so they want to know that things are perfectly ‘right’ for them before committing to anything of lasting value. 1s can jump headlong into relationships and situations, but a real life commitment is much harder to pin down and takes great inner-contemplation.

Life can be exciting living with the 1 energy so be prepared for just about anything at any time.


NUMBER 2 IN RELATIONSHIPS

Number 2s are committed and faithful to their partners and will expect the same in return. People born under the influence of 2 number will make every effort to ensure that their relationships are successful and will not be likely to make a break in any situation. For this reason, number 2s should be wary of making a commitment to the wrong person and should consider a relationship seriously before settling down.

Number 2s enjoy socializing and are generally well liked and are often noted for their sense of humour. Number 2s will find that they have many admirers, but should check their compatibility with a potential partner before becoming involved. Number 2s need security in their lives and should look for a partner who will provide this.

Once a relationship, number 2s are adaptable and open to change as long as they feel happy and secure within the relationship. Mutual respect and appreciation are of utmost importance to number 2s in relationships and without this, insecurity will begin to cast a shadow over them. Number 2s will react very badly to infidelity or betrayal of trust, and may become bitter and jealous.

Number 2s like their relationships to be calm, balanced, fair and happy. They dislike upheavals, disturbances, dramas, disharmony, upsets and arguments, so a partner who is volatile and/or highly strung may be attracted to their soothing and calming energies. The number 2 energy though may find this kind of relationship so emotionally draining that ultimately they will see themselves out of the situation with as much tact and diplomacy as possible.

An ideal partner for those influenced by the number 2 vibration would be those who enjoy a quiet, calm and sedate lifestyle and who is happy to share life’s simple pleasures.

Number 2s can have happy long-term relationships with those who carry similar numerological vibrations and traits (eg 4, 6 8) as they compliment one another’s positive and negative traits and have a deep understanding of what drives one another.

2s like their domestic lives to be calm, serene and peaceful so need a partner who shares these desires and have a similar sense of beauty. Anyone too brash, harsh or noisy would be upsetting to the 2 energy and they would not live comfortably in that environment for too long. They would either remove the source of disturbances from their homes, or remove themselves to brighter yet quieter pastures.

2s are well equipped to live by themselves as they are most self-sufficient, but carrying the qualities of unity, duality and the bringing together of energies, number 2s prefer companionship and love in their lives and are most comfortable as part of a loving couple and/or family unit.

2s naturally try to find balance in all ways and are emotional, understanding and compassionate partners. They bring a soothing energy to all situations and are natural diplomats. They do not enjoy arguing, but would rather express both sides of a story and/or solve matters in diplomatic ways. They often use their natural charms and way with words to ease tense situations and quell argumentative or drama-filled scenarios.

Number 2’s ideal partner would preferably be someone with an easy-going disposition who can go with the flow of number 2’s changing wants and needs without putting up too much of a protest. You would soon learn that there is no point as your number 2 partner will quickly and easily manoeuvre and/or manipulate you towards their way of thinking and doing anyway. They do this out of love, of course.


NUMBER 3 IN RELATIONSHIPS

Number 3’s have high expectations for their partners. Their ideal partners are exceptionally attractive and are individuals who stand out from the crowd. Relationships with number 3’s can be very romantic affairs filled with poetry and flowers.

Finding a partner will not be difficult for number 3’s, but they should choose people with similar interests if they are hoping for a long-term commitment. For a lasting relationship, Number 3’s need to find someone who shares their fondness for socializing and romance.
It is not surprising that a number 3 person is often disappointed once they settle down into a relationship and find themselves discussing mundane things such as whose turn it is to do the dishes. Number 3s need excitement and romance, and if faced with domestic drudgery may look elsewhere for excitement. Number 3s are naturally flirtatious people and they will find that they have a great many admirers. 

3s love to have fun and to share their sense of humour with loved ones, friends, acquaintances and the world at large. They are charismatic, quick-witted and sociable and enjoy the companionship of like-minded or like-souled individuals.

Part of their life purpose is to bring joy to others’ lives, and to share love and light to those who particularly need it.
Those under the influences of number 3 can easily be brought down by partners and/or loved ones who have grumpy, pessimistic world views or who find it difficult to be uplifted by 3’s optimism and positive disposition. 3s will continue to shine their light regardless, but can find it emotionally draining trying to balance their positive energies with others’ negative vibes.

3s are charming, funny and quick-minded and enjoy partners who also have a great sense of humour and who love to talk and laugh. 3s love conversation and social interactions so an ideal partner should enjoy the company of others, as well as nights out on the town.
3s often use humour to quell any disharmony, so a partner who understands their quirkiness can recognize when a 3 person wants peace and calm between them.


NUMBER 4 IN RELATIONSHIPS

Number 4s approach love and relationships seriously and they are unlikely to play the field. Long-term commitment is likely to be the priority for number 4s, and other people will be attracted by the stability and security offered by them, and in turn number 4s will be attracted to vulnerable people who need more control and stability in their lives. Generally, number 4s are loving, considerate and caring partners and they will be protective of their chosen partners and will be faithful and dependable.

Number 4s should be careful not to dominate their partners though and should allow them plenty of freedom and space to be individuals. Number 4s often find it difficult to express their emotions openly to their partners, and this may be interpreted as a lack of feeling. Partners of number 4s should accept that their mates are not prone to romantic outpourings but that they demonstrate their affection in other ways. Number 4s should make attempts to be more open with their partners.

Stress in the lives of number 4 people can create difficulties if they direct their frustrations towards their partners. They will often take stress home and create arguments in order to cope with their personal difficulties. Number 4s and their partners should be aware that this is a trait that exists and work out a strategy for dealing with it. It is especially important that number 4s are honest and open about their emotions in these situations or otherwise they may jeopardize their relationships.

4s demand honesty within all of their relationships and are quick to see through any lies, fabrications or falsehoods. They are able to put 2 and 2 together, and once deceived and lied to, they never forget.

4s make solid and dependable partners in marriage and long-term relationship settings and appreciate honesty, open-ness and love from their partners in return.

4s are happy to, if not driven to ensure that their house/home environment is solid, comfortable and well-stocked, and they appreciate partners who enjoy good food and beverages with them. They are not necessarily overly-interested in the material aspects or luxury items, but prefer solid, functional and practical home features and enjoy comfort rather than bling.

4s are not generally the ‘showy’ type, and would prefer nights on the couch in front of a documentary, comedy or educational program (as they are quite cerebral) to nights out on the town amongst noisy crowds and clamour.

An ideal partner often possesses similar numerological vibrations, and resonate with the qualities and values of the number 4 person (eg 2, 6, 8)



NUMBER 5 IN RELATIONSHIPS

Number 5s can come across as clever, flirty, witty, charming, dashing, daring and exciting, and these personality types attract many friends and admirers of both sexes. Others can fall head over heels in love with them in short time, and vice versa  -   but where the admirer may see a long-term future, the number 5 energy lives in the here and now and derive satisfaction from experiences of all kinds. This can make them less committed than some may like and can see the number 5 flitting from situation to situation, and relationship to relationship. Number 5 can fall in love quickly, but can fall out of love even quicker.

Number 5s are likely to have many relationships and experiencing a series of broken relationships is often a part of their path. They are adventurous in the area of romance and want to have a wide variety of experiences and their easy-going natures and genuine interest in people means that they will never be short of admirers. Number 5s find most people attractive and interesting and so will take up many offers.

Number 5s are naturally wary of commitment and responsibility and will be reluctant to settle down. They will not give their partners false hope, however, and they will not make promises that they do not intend to keep. The partner of a number 5 person will know where he or she stands.

Once the 5 energy believes that they have found their ‘perfect match’ they will go to great lengths to woo their chosen love, and don’t like to give up easily if facing rejection. For some, this can seem all the more enticing to them. If number 5s declare their love for their partners then this will be an indication that they are serious and wish to make a commitment.

The 5 can love deeply and sincerely, but can also be led astray if left unattended for too long or without their partner’s attentions, leading to boredom and a thirst for excitement, often leading to trouble. 5s love an audience, so their ideal partners may need to carry the personality traits of patience and perseverance as well as lightness and joy in order to endure daily life with the 5 energy person. Life can be fun, but can also be tedious and frustrating at times.

5s often have changeable dispositions and can suffer from mood swings and bursts of energy followed by down time. Number 5s are generally happy and contented partners when given the freedom to pursue their interests, and can be amusing, entertaining and charming companions  -  but on the flip-side, they can quickly crave the attention of others outside of the relationship, and this can sometimes make their partners feel left behind.

In relationships, people with the number 5 vibration need to have plenty of personal space and room to move, for without their personal freedom they become restless and irritable. If number 5s experience difficulties in their relationships they will be likely to avoid the problem/s and may look for solace elsewhere. However, number 5s will find no pleasure from infidelities as the problems that they were trying to run away from will still exist and they will have introduced new difficulties to the situation. Honesty and openness can strengthen a relationship and avoid future difficulties.

An ideal partner for someone strongly influenced by the 3 energy would need to be open and accepting of 5s many and varied friends and acquaintances. Be prepared for a busy and changeable life and lifestyle, and look forward to untold adventures and experiences.
Number 5s are loving and caring, and partners can be sure that life will never be dull with a number 5 in their lives. Once a common understanding has been achieved, relationships between number 5s and their partners will generally be harmonious.


NUMBER 6 IN RELATIONSHIPS

Number 6s are often extremely attractive individuals with a great deal of sex appeal. Although many people may flirt with number 6s and be flattered by their attentions, they may not regard number 6 as the type they wish to settle down with long-term.  Number 6s can be seen as too attractive to be trusted.

Number 6s can find it difficult to find a suitable partner. They are often drawn to people who project the right image, however, this can lead to disappointment for number 6s if they have fallen for the image rather than the person. It may be wiser for number 6s to look for a partner who will meet their emotional needs and who is sensitive and understanding. If number 6s finds such a mate they may be able to begin to deal with their stresses and emotional difficulties. In relationships, number 6s need lots of affection and reassurance, and their partners should be aware that they may be hiding negative emotions.

Number 6s demonstrate their affection through making a fuss of their partners on significant dates such as birthdays and anniversaries. They are not comfortable in demonstrating affection on a daily basis as they have a deep-rooted fear of rejection.

Arguments are unlikely in a relationship with a number 6 as 6s are likely to compromise and negotiate in order to avoid a dispute. Number 6s should be honest if they harbour resentments or ill-feelings and should allow their partners to do the same  -  discussing these will minimize future disagreements on the same topic.

Number 6s within the marriage or long-term relationship realm, are loving, supportive, comforting and accommodating, and make for fair, balanced and stable partners.
6’s like to ensure that all material needs are met for themselves and their loved ones, and will find ingenious ways to bring prosperity, beauty and abundance into the home and family environment.

6s are relatively easy-going, friendly and hospitable, but make sure not to cross them as once brought to anger 6s make formidable foe. 6s always prefer to keep things happy and amicable, but will stand up for themselves and their loved ones with fervour when/if the need arises.

Those influenced by the 6 vibration resonate well with those of similar numerological qualities such as 2, 4 and 8, but due to their good-nature and ability to see the highest good in all, number 6 makes wise, non-judgmental and trustworthy companions and make true and loyal friends and allies.

6s make great hosts as they are welcoming to all and know who to bring a sense of beauty, balance and love to all family occasions and social gatherings and outings.

6s most often have wholesome and delicious foods in their kitchens and seem to have a natural flair for flavour and taste. They often make wonderful home cooks, and family and friends can always be assured of a meal or baked treats upon visiting their homes.
6’s like their homes to be airy and bright, with a feeling of quality and comfort, and those who live there and/or visit can often feel pampered in some way. Partners will feel well cared for and nurtured living with a 6 energy.

6s have a tendency to place partners on pedestals and are shattered when they don't live up to their expectations.


NUMBER 7 IN RELATIONSHIPS

Number 7 people are extremely romantic and fall head over heels in love easily. They have a tendency to declare their undying love in the very early stages of a relationship, and this can be off-putting for the object of their affections who may feel that things are moving too fast for them. Number 7s should try to keep their emotions in check and allow relationships to grow at a more sedate pace. This approach is more likely to allow number 7s to discover if what they are experiencing is love or is in fact a brief infatuation.

Number 7s are demonstrative in their affection and frequently express their love and devotion to their partners. Number 7s will need to be reassured and have their declarations reciprocated from time to time or they will become insecure and begin to doubt their partner’s love. In this situation number 7s should be honest about how they are feeling and let their partners know that they need to be appreciated. 

The people who are most likely to be attracted to number 7s are those who find it difficult to express their emotions and feel that their inability can be compensated for by the more than plentiful abilities of 7. This generally is a good balance, but can lead to problems. 
Number 7s often choose partners who are less dreamy than themselves, and are more gifted in practical matters, and again, this is a good balance.

Within the marriage or long-term relationship areas of life, 7s need a partner who is understanding, open-minded, supportive and self-aware. 7s can be whimsical, mystical, philosophical and prophetic at times, so a suitable partner would be someone who can relate to 7s worldly and spiritual views, beliefs and perspectives. They would also need to be good listeners and be willing to take on extra responsibilities and tasks that the 7 person may have overlooked or forgotten.

7s love deeply and generally seek to see the best in people … to seek out their inner-light.
As 7s can be quite colourful, eccentric and reclusive at times, an ideal partner would be someone who is happy to go along with their flights of fancy or who are prepared and will for their partners to indulge in their esoteric interests and adventures whilst they pursue other aspirations.

Those influenced by number 7 can sometimes seem aloof, uncaring, selfish and/or preoccupied with their own interests and ideals, and can get caught up in things that intrigue them, unable to grasp why everyone else isn’t as in awe as they are. Their ideal partner may be one who is happy to just nod and smile then leave them to their own devices.

Within a love relationship, an ideal partner for the 7 energy is someone who is interesting, intelligent, intriguing and analytical as 7s love learning new things and bouncing new ideas and theories with others. They are open to others’ opinions, but are inclined to pursue their own line of ideology.

7s sometimes find personal relationships hard to maintain as intimacy can be difficult. 


NUMBER 8 IN RELATIONSHIPS

Number 8s have a fear of expressing their emotions as they are frightened of rejection and being hurt. Anyone involved with a number 8 will need to initiate any discussions about love or commitment as number 8s will never expose themselves emotionally if they are unsure of the response they may receive.

Relationships can be tumultuous as part of 8s life/karmic lessons relate to establishing what they do and what they do not want in their lives. Number 8s must often experience a line of failed romantic relationships in order to learn the lessons that will hold them in good stead throughout the remainder of their lives. This is most often recognized and appreciated in time and with clear hindsight.

Early in life 8s will not be overly concerned with romance or relationships but are more likely to focus their attentions on their ambitions in other areas of their lives. If number 8s do form relationships in their youth they should try to set aside time to spend with their partners in formulating their plans and ambitions for the future.

8s often become workaholics and are happy to spend their time pursuing their career goals. Because of this, within a marriage or long-term relationship, they need a partner who understands and accepts their self-imposed working lifestyle.

Later in life, however, finding a partner and making a firm commitment may become an ambition within itself.

Relationships formed by number 8s later in life are more likely to succeed as they will have more energy and attention to devote to their partners once their other ambitions are realized and they have established themselves and their true wants and desires in life. Once they feel that they have achieved this they are most happy and willing to settle down into a comfortable and supportive long-term relationship with a compatible partner.

Partners need to be aware and accepting of 8s passion and drive to succeed at whatever they set their mind to, as this can cause feelings of separation and lack of care and/or support.

8s can be strong individuals, and because of their energies they often attract those who want/need someone else to take responsibility for them and care of them. They may attract clingy, needy and/or dependent friends and partners who always need their help, guidance, time, attention and financial assistance.

8s make for solid and dependable partners who are intelligent, loving and faithful. They often resonate best with those who carry similar numerological vibrations, such as 2, 4 and 6.

NUMBER 9 IN RELATIONSHIPS

Number 9s have a heightened sense of self-awareness gained through life experience, common sense and intuitive wisdom. They often attract those who seek a teacher, leader, mother or father figure, or those who think that a 9 association may advance them in some way. 9s are generally quick to see through that façade though and will evacuate the offender from their life with haste.

Number 9s are most often an attractive lot and if they lack traditional charms, they will certainly compensate with more than they’re fair measure of sex appeal. Never short of admirers, number 9s tend to enjoy a hectic love life.

Number 9s are in love with the idea of being in love as they adore romantic gestures and are easily won over by candlelit dinners and poetry. Once 9s fall in love they will swear their undying love and devotion, although this will not necessarily be reciprocated by the object of their desire. If they receive a cautious response they may decide that the relationship is not for them and will look elsewhere. Number 9s thrive on passion and excitement and a relationship lacking these qualities is unlikely to satisfy them.

Relationships are very important to number 9s and they will be loving and affectionate partners who will ensure that romance and passion are kept alive in their relationships. However, their emotional and passionate natures can cause problems as they are very susceptible to jealousy and are likely to create scenes and throw tantrums if they feel they have grounds for suspicion or are faced with the behaviour of a flirtatious partner.

9s can sometimes be quick to choose to leave a relationship or situation that they feel is no longer positively serving them or has served its purpose in their lives. When they recognise that something is over and done with for them, they take quick action to end it fully. 9 is quick to cut ties. This can seem harsh to those left behind, but ultimately 9 has done them a favour by allowing them the freedom to pursue a more suitable partnership, relationship or situation.

When it comes to matters of the heart, those influences by the number 9 are committed, loving, protective partners who show positive leadership and light within relationships and partnerships, and serve as positive examples for others to follow.

9s love deeply and once committed they like to know that their partner ‘has their back’ within the relationship as well as out in the wider world. They like to know that it is a true partnership in every way and like to present a picture of unity, equality and togetherness.
An ideal partner for the number 9 individual would be someone who is strong-willed yet flexible, compassionate but not a pushover, and intelligent and supportive of 9s ideals and strong sense of ‘being’.
