If you have just met the man of your dreams (or you think that he is, anyway), don’t let him go. However, you have to watch out for some stuff too so that you can move on and develop your relationship with him in a healthy way. Have you checked off all you have to know on this list? Read on to find out what you should do/know if you have just gotten attached!
Don’t treat him like your ex.
Simply put, don’t expect him to do everything that your ex did – you are just starting out! Also, if you are expecting him to do so, then you might have to re-evaluate your priorities and why you even broke up with your ex.
Keep your cool.
Hey, don’t start to fuss all over him and go all googly-eyes. It’s easy to fall heads over heels but remember, you’ve barely been together for a month. There are many things that you haven’t discovered about him yet, so don’t be too eager to get married, yeah?
Praise other girls.
I know, I know, this seems like a counter-intuitive move. However, you have to admit that there are definitely girls out there who are better than you in some aspects. It’s no use denying it, right? Remember, he chose you for a reason. Be confident and show it!
Don’t forget your BFFs.
It’s easy to drop everything and focus on your new man, but don’t do it. BFFs will be there for you no matter what, but don’t take them for granted! After all, you still need your own life and they are the ones who will be wiping your tears when (yes, when and not if) you have your first lovers’ spat.
Don’t be controlling.
We understand that you just don’t want any secrets between both of you. You want an honest and open relationship where you are able to say anything, but that doesn’t mean that you should say everything. Give each other some space and freedom, even if it is the honeymoon phase!
Take the initiative.
He might have been the one to initiate the relationship, but don’t let him become the one to initiate everything. You can be the first to send a good morning text for a change, or plan a date together and pay for it. It gets pretty tiring when everything is the result of one-sided efforts.
Learn his love language.
If you don’t know what this is, google “the five love languages”. Some people are more outspoken while others like to give material gifts. If you are constantly expecting him to shower you with compliments, you might be in for a surprise if you haven’t realised that he is not the type to do so.
Make your expectations clear.
We don’t mean things like money and anniversary gifts, but more of relationship expectations. Some people may have completely different ideas about flirting or cheating, so lay down the rules and discuss them in order to avoid misunderstandings!
