Regardless of how much you want to be in a relationship, marry, or have children, it is always preferable to take things slowly in the long term.
It’s crucial to establish fascinating friendships before beginning a relationship and to get to know them well before making any significant choice and decision.
Relationships should not be rushed. I’m gonna tell you 7 important points that you should avoid.
Fall in love with someone immediately
If you fall in love with someone, you are not obligated to ask them out immediately.
Perhaps it would be best to get to know one another before going out. If you form a deep friendship with him or her, it will be easier for you to start dating in the future.
The Expression “I love you” or Proposing Your Crush or Partner
It is stupid to declare anything true unless you are certain. It is more valuable to tell your beloved that you love him than to hurry. If you’re not sure if the other person feels the same way, don’t say “I love you.”
Having Sex
Have sex only if you are 100% sure you want to. It’s better not to do it than to regret it. Your boyfriend will be with you even if you are not ready to have sex because they will be understanding and patient.
Marriage
Don’t do anything unless you are sure that this is what you want and what your partner wants. You will continue to love someone even if you are not married to him. It is impossible to get married just to get the title of ‘married’.
Marriage should be done only when both the partners are completely ready, not because of those pressures or the desire to tie the knot as soon as possible.
Same Residence
Deciding to live with your sweetheart is a significant step. If you move into the same home soon after your relationship begins and things do not work out as planned, one of the parties will need to rearrange.
Before deciding to live together, you should get to know one another and be certain of your emotions. Bear in mind that meeting someone and having a nice time is not synonymous with living in the same home!
Making Your Partner’s Acquaintance With Your Family
By introducing your girlfriend or boyfriend to your family, you’re indicating that you’re considering a future together. Even if you do not intend to do so, this is typically how parents view the scenario.
That is why you should thoroughly familiarise yourself with your partner before exposing them to your family.
Having children
When she married, she was asked, “Where is the child?” The inquiries begin. Another term you’re likely to hear often is “Your biological clock is ticking!”
Avoid succumbing to external pressures and refrain from having children immediately after marriage.
Naturally, if you want to have children immediately, the situation is different. However, if you are not convinced, it would be prudent to wait a few years, enjoy the marriage, and get used to it.
After all, having a kid is a significant duty that may sometimes result in severe difficulties in unresolved relationships.
