There are several things to avoid when seeking a life partner. They include:
1) Emotionally unhealthy people:
You have to figure out the emotional health of your potential partner before you enter into a long-term relationship. That's why we have lots of domestic violence cases. People see the signs but refuse to budge.

God has given believers several guidelines to ensure that His people will not wed an emotionally unhealthy person.
2) Selfish people. Pro 28:25
3) People who harbor bitterness in their life. Heb 12:15
4) People with uncontrollable anger.
5) People stuck in addiction.
6) People who are greedy.
This is not to say that any of us are perfect, but some of us are more broken than others. Everybody's
broken, but some people are a lot more broken than others. And you need
to avoid them no matter how good-looking, rich, or nice they are.
Important attributes to look for in a life partner:
Someone who is generous and kind, and who always tells the truth (Pro 11:25).
Additionally, someone who is truthful and righteous will encourage a loving and open relationship (Pro 20:7).
