We choose our husband or wife ourselves. However, if you want to experience true love in family life, you must get to know each other, build a friendship, and then fall in love. Many people mistakenly consider the first season of flowers and candies to be love.
7 stages of marriage
In the end, once the romance fades and the rose-colored glasses fall, partners begin to face the first problem, the first test of the relationship. And some think that love is gone.
Devotion and patience are the essence of love. If you decide that love has ended in your relationship, make sure that it hasn’t yet begun.
These seven stages of relationships will show you why true love and real relationships come with time.
Candies and flowers
This period lasts about 18 months. For both men and women, when they fall in love, the body starts producing hormones that help them see the world in bright colors.
During this period everything about their partner causes them admiration. They feel as if they are under the influence of drugs.
Fateful decisions should not be made during this period, because the effect of this intoxication will end sooner or later, and everything will return to the old ways.
Saturation
During this period you will start to soberly assess your relationship and partner; the sea of emotions subsides and you gradually get used to each other.
As a result, your behavior changes; you become more relaxed and natural.
Aversion
This aversion cannot be removed in any long-term relationship. This phase is characterized by quarrels and the identification of each other’s faults. It seems to you that the easiest way to avoid this problem is to separate or divorce.
After you say goodbye, you will soon return to the flow of flowers and chocolate with another person, and you will go through each stage again until you reach this point again and do not move on to the next.
Patience
In this phase partners gain wisdom. Arguments are not so dramatic because both know that an argument always ends and the relationship must continue. If both try to develop patience, they will gradually gain wisdom. That’s just the way it is.
Respect and responsibility
This is the first phase of true love, because love has not yet existed.
Partners begin to understand their duties and don’t think about what the other partner owes them, but about what they can do and give to their loved ones.
Friendship
During this period partners become very close. They trust each other as their closest friends. The friendship phase opens the way to true love.
True love
After a really long time partners reach true love, despite difficult life phases and situations.
True love is not something that unexpectedly falls from the sky into your lap, as many believe. For genuine mature love, a person matures and renounces selfishness and prejudices.
