Those First Few Months of a Relationship - Ahhhhh, paradise!

It's a little ridiculous, admit it.  Those first few months that you're in an actual relationship with someone, you're both all goo-goo gaga over each other.  You can't help but smile every single second of every single day until it feels like your face will literally melt off of your skeletal structure.  You believe it's the most wonderful time of your life and, actually, for a split second there, you thought that this... yes, this is the person you may possibly spend the rest of your life with?  You know it's all fake and half-acting.  But yet you still believe that you are truly, yes, truly happy.

Well, the nice part about the first few months of a relationship is that it's fun!  There's a lot of mysteriousness, and the fun comes out when you try to be Sherlock Holmes and solve the mystery that lays deep inside of your significant other's soul.  There are some clues to the mystery that you'll be a little disappointed in.  However, there is other evidence swirling around inside that you will find quite delightful - another step toward claiming your true love for this person.

The first few months of a relationship are also crucial because that is the point when you start to build trust for the other person.  Without trust, what is a relationship?  And, trust me, I've definitely learned this the hard way.  Just because within those first few months, you both have already semi-established that you generally trust each other doesn't mean that you can go and change your ways, or rather, just do what you want.  You have to keep this trust consistent, and if something out of line happens, you have to be honest.  You MUST be honest with not only your significant other, but also with yourself.  People, this is SO important.  Listen to me.

My advice to you is to enjoy the first months of a relationship as much as you can.  Bask in the ocean of mystery.  My other advice is once you start to drown deeper in that ocean, make an effort to paddle upwards and keep your relationship exciting and full of new ventures.  A relationship stays strong with both parties make an effort to try out different things together.
