There are a lot of stages involved when it comes to being in a relationship. You start as acquaintances, become friends, date, move in together, and get married.
But according to Barton Goldsmith:
“You are better off dating longer and seeing how someone chooses to grow rather than wishing and hoping, or trying to force someone to make the changes that you desire.”
Still, we can’t change the fact that some people are disappointed in those they forge a relationship with. The reason?
They didn’t ask enough relationship questions.
So if you’re in a relationship now, I suggest you ask your partner because it can make a huge difference in the way you relate to each other.
