Contact Related List In Custom Object?

I made a new custom object called 'Partners'. I want to add a related list for contacts to this object. How do I go about doing that?

I know how to do the reverse and make a 'Partners' related list within 'Contacts'. But that's not what I want.

Any help would be much appreciated!

You will need what is called a 'junction object', which is custom object that has a master-detail to Partners, and a Lookup to Contact. The 'junction object' will be the Partners related list,but if you make the Name field of the junction object an auto-number, you can remove it from the related list layout and add the Contact Name so Users can click and go directly from the Partners object to the Contact.
