Stages Of Relationships

• • STAGE 1: 1-3 months = The Honeymoon Stage:
    Everything seems perfect, both are happy and feeling “in love”. You share moments, dates, and just having fun with each other, sharing laughs and giggles. It’s like nothing could stop you. Your feelings are infinite, and for once you’re thinking ” This may work out.. ” and seems like nothing could go wrong. You spend hours getting ready before going out with this person.
    
    
    • *If your relationship ended in this stage - Most likely, both rushed into the relationship to fast. Being together was all too sudden and just for the moment.

Both maybe just need the time to know one another more.

    Things are going okay now. The relationship is calm and settled; both are still mostly happy. Had a couple arguments and disagreements here and there, nothing huge. Start to notice some of each other’s flaws and aspects of their personality not seen before, but still truely care for one another.

When one isn’t happy, one tends to walk away to seek their new happiness. Being friends is still a possibility.
  • STAGE 3: 7-12 months = The Rocky Mountain: 
    You start to realize who your partner really is. A few more arguements may occur. Problems with jealously. Over protectiveness may rise. Other people may come in the picture. The “in love” momments start to decrease, but you feel as if, you’ve “fallin in love”. You tend to have this energy inside to strive and “make it work”, you feel more comfortable being around this person, feeling more of yourself.
    
    
    • *If your relationship ends in this stage - You feel as if you’re hurt- depending on the circumstance. You were so sure that that person was “the one”. You were so SURE that he/she was different. But like a cancer, a problem that may have happened; a small issue,
