7 Signs You Are Moving Too Fast in Your Relationship
There is no fixed yardstick of determining whether a couple is going slow in their relationship or they are moving at a supersonic speed. How quickly a relationship progresses from friendship to dating to proposing to marriage is a relative matter. But there are a few signs that will help you to know if you are going too fast in your relationship, especially if you have just begun dating someone.
1. You exchange home keys, bank account numbers and passwords
If you have recently started dating a guy, you should be sharing sweet nothings with him. Not confidential information like bank account numbers, passwords or the keys to your apartment. You may want to invest more time in your relationship to find out whether you can trust your guy and that he has reasonable morals and ethics.
2. You dream about your own home and children
Dreaming about your own house and kids is natural when you are about to get engaged to your boyfriend and on a verge of starting a new life altogether. But if you are dating a guy only since a few days or weeks, you should not make the mistake of building castles in the air. By making too many plans for your future, will only invite disappointments if they don’t see the light of the day.
3. You are saving up for your big, exotic vacation together
Unmarried couples are likely to go on short trips and vacations when they both are financially independent and they have been dating for a few months or years. But, if you have a long time to reach either of these stages and if you have already begun looking up airfares, it may be time for you to slow down.
4. You browse through bridal magazines
Do you need to get good deals on a wedding dress before the peak season hits? What type of decorations should you have in your wedding? If you have already begun thinking about these questions and been flipping through bridal magazines despite the fact that your relationship is relatively new, you are definitely moving too fast. It is good to aspire towards developing a committed and lifelong relationship, but to start dreaming about your big day is too fast and too soon.
