You feel bolder

Since you’ve met your partner, you’ve only felt bolder every day. You’re going after things you’ve always wanted, and even imagining up larger goals for yourself than you thought you ever would.

Failure doesn’t hurt as much

Being turned down for a job or anything else you want doesn’t hurt as much. Your relationship truly is the biggest source of happiness in your life—nothing could make you happier, so it’s not a big deal when you don’t get other things. You always have your boo.

He’s the best part of your day

Your partner remains the best part of your day. Even if you get to do something amazing one day like meet your favorite celebrity or go skydiving! Your favorite part of the day is still seeing your partner and telling him all about it.

Sex is getting better

You’re just as giddy when you have sex now, as you were the first time, if not more. You feel more lost in the moment each time you two do it, your kisses create more sparks, and your bodies are totally in sync.

You laugh more every day

Your neighbors would swear you were playing a stand-up comedy special because they hear you and your partner laughing all of the time. That’s what happens when you know each other thoroughly; you find the humor in everything.

You don’t dread errand day

Errand day is fun! It’s a day you have an excuse to hang out with your boo. And you know you’ll just get goofy waiting at the car wash.

Your friendships are getting stronger

When your relationship gets stronger, your friendships get stronger. You get more in touch with who you are, and your partner brings out the qualities in you that everybody loves the most.

You’re making amends with family

Somehow, when you’re in a really strong relationship, all of that family drama just doesn’t matter anymore. It melts away. That’s because you’re building your own, new family with your honey.

You miss each other more when you’re apart

Every time you’re apart, you miss each other more than last time. When your relationship just gets better and better, you can’t help but miss one another’s presence more and more.

You feel positive about the future

You feel truly okay about whatever happens in the future. Your career can take you anywhere, your finances may fluctuate—but you know you’ll have your partner, and that brings you a great deal of peace.

You say I love you more than ever

Some partners say it less and less with each passing day but the two of you say it almost every twenty minutes! Everything your partner does makes you explode with the words, “I love you!”

You can’t lie to each other

You know each other way too well at this point to lie to each other. Even if you just want to lie and say, “I’m okay” when you’re not—that won’t fly.

Fighting feels unnatural

You fight less and less, so when you do fight, it feels unnatural. Fighting almost feels like a flu in your relationship; it’s a sickness that doesn’t belong there! You also feel closer every day, so any time you feel far apart (like when you’re fighting) it feels worse. On the flip side, unhappy couples feel perfectly at-home in a fight because that’s the norm for them.

Your body relaxes around him

Your blood pressure drops, your breathing slows, your fidgeting stops. Your partner is as therapeutic to you as yoga, meditation, or a therapy dog.

You’re partying less and that’s okay

You don’t feel like you’re missing out on anything if you stay in with each other. In fact, when you go out, you feel like you’re missing out on quality time with your best friend (your boo).

You love those mid-day phone calls

You’re not tired of the mid-day phone calls; you cherish them! This is when you get to catch your best friend up on all the shenanigans going on at work.

You argue less, with everyone

You have become less combative with everybody you know. You let the little things go. You even get a grip quicker after big things go wrong. You have one person with whom you agree so completely on the important things in life that it doesn’t matter when other people argue with you about small matters.

You’re self-healing

You’ve actually begun some self-healing that you’ve needed to do for a decade. Your partner makes it feel less frightening to finally acknowledge and tackle old traumas.

Everyone wants you to get married

Everybody around you keeps asking when you’ll get married, and when you’ll have kids. It’s so obvious to everybody that you’re strong, and will do great things together. So they just want you to seal the deal!
