You actually put on a pair of jeans to go out, instead of sweats. Then, you start officially dating. The honeymoon stage hits you hard. You learn the things he or she likes and what you have in common. Every moment just feels right. It's like nothing could get between the two of you. A few months go by, and well, the heart-pounding kisses start to become average. The butterflies begin to fade, and you remember how to breathe. A year rolls around, and you're probably getting pretty comfortable with one another.
You're probably used to using the bathroom with your SO still in it. After all, it's been a year. When you get comfortable with being with someone for so long, there are some good and bad things that happen in your relationship: 1. You're not nice anymore. The Bad You're passed the "Yes, that looks good on you, I swear" niceties, and you've entered the "No, that shirt doesn't look good on you" phase. Though it may seem like your SO isn't affected by it, he or she most definitely is.
The Good This leaves you two to be completely vulnerable and honest with one another. You can have conversations about the things that bother you. These are things you're more comfortable bringing up now. Your secrets are out. But, you absolutely don't care.
The Good Your significant other adores you for all you are. He or she adores every real inch of you. You have grown to appreciate each other, regardless of hairy legs and hairy faces. Crafting the perfect sentence that is witty, flirty, and has just the right combo of emojis was exhausting.
Now you don't even care if auto-correct changes "sec" to "sex". Ordering what you actually want to eat on a date. Do you look classy eating a burger? Do you care? Absolutely not. In fact, he enjoys your face in all its ketchup and mustard covered glory. And in return, you let him order that milkshake—even though you know what dairy does to his stomach. Love ain't always pretty. He knows about your obsession with Ryan Gosling and you know he might leave you for Hermione Granger, should the opportunity arise.
Now if only we could get those two to star in a romantic comedy together. That might be the best porn for couples ever created.
Not caring if they see you without makeup on. He told you once that he thinks you look beautiful with no makeup on, and you definitely do, so you skip the war paint from time to time.
You also skip shaving your legs every single time you see him, but that's mostly for yourself. Sleeping at their place and, like, actually sleeping. Adult slumber parties are fun. But what's even more fun is being fine with catching up on some much-needed, drool-inducing sleep. This is the point where you don't have to have sex every time one of you stays the night. Sometimes snuggling is just as good if not better.
Having sex with the lights on. You're taking care of each other's needs, no matter what they are. You order whatever the heck you want on date night. Not anymore. One milk shake and fries, please! Going Dutch feels good. You've let go of the guy-always-pays pressure of newbie relationships, or maybe you simple feel comfortable picking up the tab here and there because you're in this together. You can say how you feel without it turning into a fight. You don't actually love that he leaves the toilet seat up—and sharing a few choice words the next time you fall in doesn't lead to a blow-up, drag-out, relationship-ending argument.
He just laughs and says he'll try to remember. You still get it on when you're sick. At the beginning of your relationship, a single sneeze was enough to have you hiding out of sight from one another. Now, slathering VapoRub on his chest strangely tends to lead to sex. When you sleep over, you actually sleep.
