You meet someone new, exchange contacts, have a couple of dates, talk on the phone quite regularly and have even visited each other a couple of times; but what next after that? At this point you’re just casual daters, but there are so many signs that can tell if you both should step it up a notch and have a relationship.
Many potential relationships have ended at the stage of casual dating just because they didn’t know the next step to take. They go on a couple of dates, enjoy each other’s company and then it ends gradually.
There are certain signs that show it’s time to move the relationship up a little.
1. YOU ARE HAPPY WITH EACH OTHER
When on dates or visits, if you have the penchant to make each other happy or realise that you’re happy together then it’s a good sign that it’s time to leave the casual daters tag and move up a little.
2. FEEL COMFORTABLE WITH EACH OTHER
If you also feel comfortable with each other and love being with each other, then it’s a sign that you can take the relationship a bar higher. Having a partner that you feel comfortable with and who feels comfortable with you is a sign that it would be nice to take it a step higher.
3. KEEP IN TOUCH REGULARLY
If you both keep in touch regularly and enjoy talking to each other, then it’s a sign that it would be nice to take the relationship higher. Constant communication is a sign that you both like each other and love to hear each other.
4. YOU BOTH GENUINELY CARE
If you both genuinely care about each other and love to put a smile on each other’s face then it’s a sign a relationship might actually be worth it.
5. YOU ARE NOT AFRAID OF TALKING ABOUT THE FUTURE
If you both talk about the future or try to make future plans, it actually signals that you’re both interested in having a future together.
6. YOU MISS EACH OTHER WHEN APART
When you find yourself thinking about that person when alone and the feeling is mutually shared by the other partner then it’s sign enough that taking the relationship further would be quite ideal.
7. YOU DON’T FEEL COMFORTABLE WITH THE ‘JUST FRIENDS’ TAG
When you feel uneasy whenever you are both tagged as just friends then it means you actually crave that person a lot, and if the person feels same then taking the relationship further would be quite ideal.
So many people have lost touch of a potential partner just because they didn’t make the move to push the relationship from casual daters to something much better.
