Dating
This is the time in which two people get to know each other. Time
should be spent getting to learn what each other’s personality is like.
Hopefully the couple will find similar activates that they both enjoy.
This is the time period in which the couple learns weather or not they are
compatible with each other.
At this point there is no real reason why each person can’t see someone
else. At this stage the relationship shouldn’t be much more then friendly
towards each other.
It is important here that each person be on there best
behavior. That is because each person should be trying to show off his or
her best qualities in hopes that it is something the other person is looking
for.
Breakup
Ultimately most relationships break up at least once. The reason for
this can be found in the strengths of the elements of each person.
Generally it is either the aggressive or depressive elements that are the
primary cause.
The depressive elements cause break ups because these elements limit a
persons ability to see in any direction other then where they are already
heading. The aggressive elements tend to cause breakups because they tend
to focus more on the individual rather then the couple.
Given time each problem can be overcome. It all depends on how well the
couple fit together where the rest of the elements are concerned.
At this stage is the greatest potential to date other people.
It gives the greatest potential to see how strong the love actually is between
the couple that broke up. If it is strong enough, eventually the potential
is there to get back together.
Going Steady
This is the point when the couple is back together after the break
up. At this stage the couple shouldn’t be spending any time with anyone
else. They should spend time learning how to handle each other’s
faults. It is this stage where each person determines if there are any
serious flaws in the other person they can’t live with.
Engagement
This is when a serious commitment is made to each other. It is a
time to determine if each person is capable of not seeing any one else. It
is also a time to learn the others physical and sexual needs as
well.
Marriage
This is the final commitment. It is expected to be lifelong and
final.
