At what point (to you) does it become a relationship? When it is expressed? after a certain number of dates and/or communication?

When we realize we are solid in love ...
The very moment ... then! |
|
|
|
When we split the bill?
Damn! i'm SO outdated! |
|
|
|
The moment that we realize "This is what I've been looking for" and
you know that they feel the same way. Then the kiss, you know THE kiss, yeah, that's the one. Now you're in a relationship. |

You and your beautiful lady are soooooooooooooooo lucky. I remember that feeling. I so hope I feel it again before I get too old. There's nothing like it. God bless you both. |

Relationship is such a vague term. I have a relationship with the waitress at Denny's. I also have one with my mom and my son too.
If you mean a mutually exclusive, sexual relationship with a woman it happens when we verbally agree on it. |

I have to say if it feels right and it either does or doesn't.

If you mean a mutually exclusive, sexual relationship with a woman it happens when we verbally agree on it. I was thinking more along the lines of a serious relationship, but you brought up a good point. Any relationship where 2 people are thinking along the same lines. Parent/child - they can be related but not necessarily have a relationship Casual relationship - what if the other person thinks it's a serious relationship when you see it as casual? Am I understanding it's when it is expressed and communicated? |

|
I ask because some people want to hear the "label" so to speak and know that it's so, like a deal
Some people just assume based on how much they talk or how often they see each other |

Relationship??
What the hell is that?? I seem to have dropped that word from my vocabulary over the last 5 years. |
|

|
I let the guy decide, when he calls it a relationship, I agree. Until then, we're just friends.

Am I understanding it's when it is expressed and communicated? I feel that every relationship has a natural ark. A beginning, middle and end. That end may be death. I haven't spoken with my sister in over ten years yet we have a relationship. Our relationship is "estranged." I haven't been married for a long time. But we have a son, so she and I still maintain a "relationship." That doesn't mean we are sleeping together. We are not. I think what you mean by relationship is what we called in high school "going steady." |

TS....yes "going steady" is more accurate (it's late and I'm going in an attack so I'm not thinking well)

If you mean a mutually exclusive, sexual relationship with a woman it happens when we verbally agree on it. Of course she meant "mutually exclusive".... He is right, it's when two people agree that they want to be mutually exclusive with one another... |

So when he says I'm his gf, I agree. Just a defense mechanism to protect my ego. |

so does ANYONE here assume there is a relationship or does everyone, so far, needs to communicate about it?
I've seen friends talk about "their boyfriends/girlfriends" based only on the amount of time talking or going out. I just couldn't assume something myself. |
