Obama's secret for finding your perfect match.

Despite the stress of public life, eight years spent in the White House, and 26 years of marriage, whenever Barack and Michelle Obama are photographed together they still look like a pair of high school sweethearts.

According to President Obama, building that type of successful relationship boils down to three questions.


In his new book Yes We Still Can, former Obama communications director Dan Pfeiffer shares the advice the President gave him after hearing he was moving in with his partner Howli.

There are three questions a person needs to ask themselves to know if they've found the right partner.

1. Are they someone you find interesting?

At first Pfeiffer was confused by this question but the President went on to explain.

"You will spend more time with this person than anyone else for the rest of your life, and there is nothing more important than always wanting to hear what she has to say about things."

2. Do they make you laugh?

3. Will they make a good parent?

To this the President added;

"I don't know if you want kids, but if you do, do you think she will be a good mom? Life is long. These are the things that really matter over the long term."

Pfeiffer than told the President about his partner.

"Howli is incredibly interesting, funnier than I am, and will be a phenomenal mom."

Obama replied "Sounds like she's the one. Lucky you."


There's an endless amount of good and bad relationship advice out there, but the President seems to have boiled it down to what really matters.





And some couldn't help but wonder what the current President might have to say on the subject.






As heartwarming as Pfeiffer's story was, the brief reminder of our former President made many nostalgic for better days.






Although he may no longer be our President it feels like Obama is still looking out for us.

Trump Sparks Concern After Repeatedly Confusing Alaska With Russia Ahead Of Putin Meeting

President Donald Trump turned heads on Monday after he repeatedly claimed he's going to "Russia" on Friday—very openly confusing the country with the state of Alaska, the actual location where he plans to meet Russian President Vladimir Putin for a highly anticipated summit.

Trump made the mix-up during a press conference about crime in Washington, D.C., where he has already moved to federalize the police and deploy the National Guard, citing inflated crime statistics that compared D.C. to Baghdad and Brasilia.

JB Pritzker Explains Exactly Why Trump Is Pushing His GOP Allies To Redistrict—And He's Spot On

Speaking on NBC's Meet the Press, Illinois Governor JB Pritzker perfectly explained why President Donald Trump is pushing for gerrymandered redistricting in Republican-led states amid pushback from Democrats in Texas.

Redistricting has been all over the news cycle in the days since Texas Democrats fled the state to avoid voting on a new heavily-gerrymandered redistricting map and to deny their GOP colleagues a quorum, the minimum number of lawmakers required to conduct legislative business.

MSNBC Fact-Checks Trump In Real Time As He Blatantly Lies About Crime Rates In DC

President Donald Trump is facing criticism after he was fact-checked by MSNBC in real time as he lied about crime statistics while announcing his decision to federalize police in Washington, D.C., and deploy the National Guard in an effort to fight crime.

Trump's announcement is a significant escalation of his previous attacks on the nation's capital, which he has repeatedly referred to as "crime-infested." He claimed in his remarks to the press that D.C. is “one of the most dangerous cities anywhere in the world,” a claim at odds with Justice Department data showing that the city’s crime rate hit a 30-year low last year.
