href="https://thetab.com/tag/tiktok">TikTok</a> that’s supposed to show whether your relationship is going to work out.</p> <p>It’s called the Bird Test, and all you have to do is pretend you saw a bird when you’re outside with your partner. Yes, that’s it.</p> <p>While you’re walking through the park one day, say something like “Wow, look at that pretty bird” and see how they react.</p> <p>The test reveals whether they are a narcissist, so you can find out if they actually care about you – or only about themself.</p> <blockquote class="tiktok-embed" cite="https://www.tiktok.com/@davidandhana/video/7328509399121595691"

looking good for your future.</p> <p>However, if they ask you about the bird and want to know more, they pass and your relationship is destined to succeed.</p> <p>Ultimately, it’s all about whether your boyfriend or girlfriend actually shows an interest in the things that make you happy.</p> <p>If they show no interest in something you say, even if it’s as boring and dull as a bird, that’s a bad sign.</p> <blockquote class="tiktok-embed" cite="https://www.tiktok.com/@egybestie/video/7312569625844174126" data-video-id="7312569625844174126" data-embed-from="oembed" style="max-width:605px;

relationships.</p> <p>They call these little comments, like pointing out a bird on the street, “connection bids”.</p> <p>“Bids for connection are when one partner reaches out to the other person for either interest or a conversation or expressing a need,” Dr Gottman told <a href="https://edition.cnn.com/2024/06/24/health/bids-for-connection-better-relationship-wellness/index.html">CNN</a>.</p> <p>These bids are really important in relationships as they are what drive that emotional connection with each other.</p> <p>In <a href="https://www.psychologytoday.com/gb/blog/dating-toxic-or-tender/202311/dont-let-the-bird-test-clip-your-relationship-wings">Psychology Today</a>, psychologist Brian Collison says this “mutual attentiveness and responsiveness are essential for relationship satisfaction”.</p> <style>.feature-header { margin-bottom: -30px !important; top: -20px !important; margin-left:-6px; } @media screen
