When the newness of a relationship wears off, and the lovers fall into a pattern of intimacy, how does this affect their relationship?
Many times, what happens at this stage is that the partners get far away from the awkwardness that is usually common at the beginning of the relationship.
Each partner knows what the other likes already; they also know the boundaries of each other’s temperaments. In short, they know all about each other.
This is actually a very good stage to be in, as it suggests that the relationship lasted long enough for understanding to blossom.
What are the crazy things that couples might do at this stage? [Emphasis on the word crazy]
1. Let out ‘gas’ in presence of the other
Some partners actually believe that if the other has not done this in their presence, he/she is still hiding something from them.
Crazy, yeah? But it is actually a gauge for closeness and intimacy.
2. Play fighting
This actually needs no explanation, except to say that it does not happen without a certain deep level of intimacy.
3. Ridiculous nicknames
This is really reserved for really playful, close partners, and most times, the crazier the nickname, the likelier it is that the partners are very intimate.
4. Jokeful insults
Surely Nigerians in relationships must understand this very well.
“See your head like Badagry coconut.” We all know this is not really an insult, It is a word of endearment.
5. Brutal honesty
Simply because by this stage, you both are too close to be mincing words on serious matters.
You just say it as it is.
Choose Yours
