When my boyfriend and I first started dating, we obviously got to deal with the honeymoon phase. It was a good time of being carefree and happy with one another without seeing the bad sides of the other. There was no fighting and we were just enjoying each other’s company. We have been dating for over four years now so we know a lot about each other, yet I feel like we are once again in the honeymoon stage, just in a more mature way.
- Weā€™re talking 24/7
Despite both of us having work and school, we tend to text each other very often and throughout the day. Most of the time one or the other might be too busy to respond, so we tend to just give each other updates on what weā€™ve done or what weā€™re going to do. This allows us to always communicate with each other despite having a long-distance relationship.
- We rarely fight
This is probably the biggest reason that I believe weā€™re in the honeymoon stage since we do not fight with one another. Previously once the honeymoon stage ended all we would do was clash heads. Although we both do think very alike, we communicate with one another and discuss things rather than getting into fights. By being able to communicate lessens the amount of fighting we do and allows us to just be happy with one another and be more carefree since we arenā€™t stressed with issues.Ā
- Weā€™re always happy and carefree around one another
Most of the time when weā€™re together weā€™re tickling one another or making jokes. A lot of times when I was back home, my mom would tell me that I could hear both my boyfriend and me laughing from across the house. We both enjoy each other’s company and we do a lot of different things together. The reason I say it’s carefree is that we always tend to hang out for an entire day and by the end of it we always ask ourselves where has time gone.
Although we are four years into our relationship, it feels as if we’re reliving the honeymoon phase. Obviously, there have been lots of ups and downs throughout the years but we have managed to work them out and weā€™re much happier now. Hopefully, we are able to continue growing together so that even if our honeymoon phase dies out, we can still be happy.
