Relationships don’t fail because love died. They fail because people got stuck in a stage and didn’t grow through it.
Here’s a breakdown of the 𝟲 𝘀𝘁𝗮𝗴𝗲𝘀 𝗼𝗳 𝗮 𝗿𝗼𝗺𝗮𝗻𝘁𝗶𝗰 𝗿𝗲𝗹𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝘀𝗵𝗶𝗽, and what each one demands from you:
𝗦𝘁𝗮𝗴𝗲 𝟭: 𝗜𝗡𝗙𝗔𝗧𝗨𝗔𝗧𝗜𝗢𝗡 (𝟬–𝟯 𝗺𝗼𝗻𝘁𝗵𝘀)
When everything feels magical — but most of it is fantasy.
• Intense attraction and excitement
• Constant communication and longing
• Idealization: seeing them as perfect
• You’re falling fast — but not deep yet
Enjoy the spark, but don’t mistake it for a foundation.
𝗦𝘁𝗮𝗴𝗲 𝟮: 𝗥𝗢𝗠𝗔𝗡𝗖𝗘 (𝟯–𝟲 𝗺𝗼𝗻𝘁𝗵𝘀)
The butterflies turn into bonding.
• Emotional connection deepens
• Affection and physical intimacy increase
• Shared experiences grow
• You feel “in love”
Chemistry starts it, but connection sustains it.
𝗦𝘁𝗮𝗴𝗲 𝟯: 𝗥𝗘𝗔𝗟𝗜𝗧𝗬 𝗖𝗛𝗘𝗖𝗞 (𝟲–𝟭𝟮 𝗺𝗼𝗻𝘁𝗵𝘀)
Love now has a mirror — and it shows the truth.
• Flaws, habits, and differences emerge
• Disagreements surface
• Your ability to communicate is tested
• Love becomes a choice, not just a feeling
This stage makes or breaks the relationship. Grow, or it cracks.
𝗦𝘁𝗮𝗴𝗲 𝟰: 𝗜𝗡𝗧𝗜𝗠𝗔𝗖𝗬 & 𝗧𝗥𝗨𝗦𝗧 (𝟭–𝟮 𝘆𝗲𝗮𝗿𝘀)
You’re either building something solid — or drifting apart.
• Emotional vulnerability increases
• Deeper understanding and acceptance
• Shared values and life goals become clear
• Security and trust replace uncertainty
Safety, not spark, builds intimacy.
𝗦𝘁𝗮𝗴𝗲 𝟱: 𝗖𝗢𝗠𝗠𝗜𝗧𝗠𝗘𝗡𝗧 (𝟭–𝟱 𝘆𝗲𝗮𝗿𝘀)
Now it’s about the life you’re building, not just the love you’re feeling.
• Long-term decisions are made together
• Responsibilities are shared
• You face life’s seasons as a team
• Love feels rooted
Love is not something you feel every day, it’s something you choose every day.
𝗦𝘁𝗮𝗴𝗲 𝟲: 𝗚𝗥𝗢𝗪𝗧𝗛 & 𝗘𝗩𝗢𝗟𝗨𝗧𝗜𝗢𝗡 (𝟱+ 𝘆𝗲𝗮𝗿𝘀)
It’s no longer just about staying together — it’s about growing together.
• Personal and relational growth
• Navigating change and life challenges
• Deep companionship and peace
• Reinventing love in each season
Great relationships evolve, they don’t stay where they started.
𝗖𝗼𝗻𝗰𝗹𝘂𝘀𝗶𝗼𝗻
You don’t need a 𝗽𝗲𝗿𝗳𝗲𝗰𝘁 𝗿𝗲𝗹𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝘀𝗵𝗶𝗽.
You need two people 𝘄𝗶𝗹𝗹𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘁𝗼 𝗴𝗿𝗼𝘄 𝘁𝗵𝗿𝗼𝘂𝗴𝗵 𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘆 𝘀𝘁𝗮𝗴𝗲.
Don’t quit at the hard parts. That’s where most love stories lose their plot.
