What are the signs that a relationship has reached a new level and become truly close?
Five of them – the main ones, in our opinion – you will find in this article.
You know your partner's schedule
So if you're invited to a party on Thursday, you'll decline: your significant other has an important performance on Friday, so he or she needs to get a good night's sleep the night before.
You have extensive knowledge about things that do not interest you.
For example, you can list a dozen characters from Star Wars even though you are not a fan of the franchise, explain which soldering iron you should choose and why even though you have never held one in your hands, or recite a poem even though you are not a fan of poetry.
Interests and hobbies may be different, but you are always ready to listen with interest to what your partner talks about.
You know each other's household preferences and tastes
That's why you won't buy vanilla shower gel (you need raspberry) or a pine-scented car air freshener (you need coffee), you won't offer pasta for dinner (only vegetables in the evenings), and you'll listen to rap with headphones.
Have you started to notice that you often use “we” instead of “I”?
"Our cat", "We woke up", "We didn't expect this"... In general, just like parents of small children. But is that bad?
You laugh at jokes that only you understand
There is no point in explaining these jokes to others – they won’t understand them anyway, since they don’t know all the details and associations that arise in your head. However, you both still have fun.
Earlier we talked about 5 problems that arise in almost every modern family.
