[@bunnybunny6573]

1. Trying to learn everything about each other on the first date 2. Trying to feel and give comfort and trust without chemistry 3. Doubting stage 4. Attraction (delayed response) 5. He has someone else available

[@elizabethhansen9154]

I feel like these steps probably apply for people who are generally mentally and emotionally healthy. As a person with severe anxiety, depression, and a background of trauma, my relationships seem to follow a similar timeline but, for example, the "doubting" phase is constant and it's not because I'm with the wrong partner, it's because there are things I need to work through. Learning to trust is also very, very slow and the comfort of being vulnerable does not come until later. I'm also dating someone I became friends with first and became attracted to later. There may be a general pattern with human relationships, but there is no norm that everyone should follow or a way every relationship should look. Work on being your best self!

We simply remain attracted to our lover as they age. I'm not gonna WANT romance by the time I'm free to.

As a person with really low self-esteem, I went through the doubt stage through the whole relationship. But as the relationship progressed, I was more confident about myself and got through the stage. After year and half, it's easy to say that this stage is behind me even though it seems surreal. I have to say one thing though... I'm lucky. From my point of view it's hard to find someone who would accept you the way you are, won't rush things, and respect your fears and help you overcome them

[@Matteo-df5up]

I’m in that stage right now. I am the one going through it. I have an amazing girlfriend who is very understanding, loving, and supportive.

@Some Rando Filipino @@Psych2go Yo. Recently got into a committed relationship with someone I had been "just friends" with for over two years before the stars aligned and I stepped up to the challenge with a wonderful woman. I think the video touched upon one thing that should be gone into more depth - how so many couples show themselves as perfect on social media. They're often not. I mean, certainly I am sure that there plenty of happy couples but the reality is that not every moment with your partner is going to be SQUEEE FOR THE GRAM worthy and really, it shouldn't frickin' be. Yeah I'll stick a cheeky little reference to when we had a "date" which consisted of us playing classic Doom in co-op mode and you better believe I'm proud to have someone who can do that with me, but seriously, the vast moments in your relationship should largely be for YOU AND HIM/HER/THEY/WHATEVER. The fact of the matter is that the best moments in your shared lives won't be the epic travels but more the little moments when you're just laying in bed reflecting. Holding her when she's feeling down and being willing to show your most vulnerable self to her with the knowledge that she won't think you're a wuss. I'm rambling but the truth is that you can be in a relationship with virtually everyone. We are nothing yet we are everything - a perpetual blank slate that will be defined by the next words written on it. So what words do you want written on you? Peace and happy new year.

[@seroma3516]

The regular relationship works like that for me: 1. General liking 2. Approaching the other person, narrowing down the environmental distance 3. Getting to know them 4. Asking them out on activities, such as hiking, going to the movies, ice cream, looking for books A.K.A dates 5. Telling them what I like them for, attributes I like 6. Meeting them in the evening for a drink or for a walk 7. Asking them if they're comfortable with me coming up after some time of doing so 8. Watching series together at their place 9. Asking for a sleepover on the couch or in their bed, if they're curious enough, snuggling a little bit/just enjoying their proximity 10. Starting to touch their wrist or wind their hair 11. Kissing and touching 12. Getting to know the other ones body in further detail...🌷 13. The euphoric stuff 14. Rewarding them at some occasions such as an anniversary with a weekend in some hotel that is located somewhere interesting 15. Basically doing stuff together that you grew into doing together, travelling for holidays together. 16. Never got to this stage yet. Any tips? All my relationships held for 2 years and a couple months and they all ended on the same line 'It's not your fault, I don't feel it anymore. You've been ever so grateful to me, but I can't keep this up' Any initiative to be taken?

[@cre8gnr8nrg]

Sounds similar to many of mine. Usually they want it 'growing' in some direction. Be that a commitment to them (nope) or just see you working harder at life than you were at another time with them. For me, life is usually in a good space so I'm enjoying it. However when I'm pushing myself be that physically, mentally, spiritually, emotionally or financially they respond better. Some of that stuff our relationships might not see like growing spiritually but other women take notice who can see that. I just look at all my experiences as part of my journey experiencing life. Can't have tears if you don't have pleasure and smiles before. =)

Getting serious -like talking about the future and feeling like we could be together. 7. Doubts -mainly worrying that I'm not enough (purely a me thing that wasn't caused by the other person. Though it has been caused by others before sooo) 8. Stability. -in that we are ably to get over anything together and feel like we basically are a pair. Like shoes, you need both.

Then try to not date them and spend some time on yourself and yourself only :) I'm a grown woman and I never had a boy/girlfriend. I had multiple chances, but I simply refused to. I knew that I wasn't ready for such a bond and that it might hurt me or the other person. Do I feel good tho? Yes, I do. When I was younger I wanted others to validate me. But I learned that by time I am the only one who can do that job. Idk how the two months in yout life were, but it won't take you anywhere to pointlessly hurt other people, only because you've been hurt. Try to reflect on yourself first, maybe you weren't ready for a serious relationship? Idk where I heard this one but I'll say it anyway: "You can only truly love someone when you've learned to love yourself." Idk if that might help you. Keep your head up bro, the time will come.

We support each other really well and communicate openly. We've discussed marriage, kids, building a home, etc. We've even talked about what happens if we get to the point where we can't take care of each other anymore. (We're both chronically ill so this is a HUGE possibility.) Honestly I'm confident I'll spend the rest of my life with him. And so are tons of people in our lives.

Yeah, same here! Neither of us were looking for romance when we met, I'd actually sworn off "such nonsense" years before. We were happy to be friends. I don't think I could say he & I ever really 'dated'--unless you count the one time he took me out for my birthday, but we didn't consider it a date (even though it felt like one).That event fell between the time we'd each realized we'd fallen in love, but before we found out the other felt the same way... By the time we did confess our feelings to each other, we knew this was it, we were already in it for the long haul. So the seduction stage came after the commitment. We got engaged three years ago, right before Christmas, got married the following May. We're still wondering when that "honeymoon stage" is supposed to end, we just keep on falling deeper in love...💕💑💕

If you have a long term relationship that started very young, be prepared for a hard slog to keep it going. You're both going to change a lot over the years, especially through college, (don't even get me started on how tough long distance can be), but it's worth it to see the person they become. It's hard, having dated my person since I was 14, and just being split from them during college years, having to watch how much they're changing through the years. I don't know what it's going to be like, having to basically meet this whole new person after 4 years, but I think it's going to be worth it. So, for any young couples out there who want a future together, just know, you will both change. maybe not anything so drastic, but you will both change, hopefully into better people, who will love each other even more. I know that it's been worth it for us to keep going , and I hope it continues to be. It's hard, but definitely worth it.

Stage 7: you get rejected and lose all the good times that you have had for the past 4 months and everything just becomes memories and you start to question you decisions. .... that was my last experience I didn't get rejected cuz of looks or me in total it's cuz of our environment and culture and the stress we had to end it for the greater good but damn it's just heartbreaking I have recovered that sort of breakup happened to me the past month and it was heartbreaking but it changed me to the better.
