It interests me how much relationships differ from person to person.
While some move fast, others move slow, but no matter which one you asked,
they’d both tell you that their way was better.
That is until you get to a stage, like where I’m at, and you realize that it’s only good if the other person in the relationship also wants it that way.
If you have one person that wants to move fast and another slow, you’ve got problems.

My relationship with EX, went fairly quickly. By 4 months we had said "I love you" and by a year we had moved in together.
Neither one of us minded.
We both needed the other.

Now I’m in a new relaitonship, it’s going wonderfully, but I’ve already noticed changes from this one compared to the last.
Mind you, these comparisons are only on the surface.
i.e. I am just now getting to the stage where I feel comfortable making dinner for him and finishing up laundry that he’s started at my house.
With EX I was making dinner for him at 3 months and at 4 months our laundry was being done together.

Differences that aren't bad, just different.

I look at M.M. and M.W. they've been married for 4 and a half years. When they got married, they had only been seeing each other for 4 months.
My aunt on the other hand, she got married after 3 years of dating and was divorced at 2 years of marriage.
And still on another hand, my parents were married after 4 and a half years of dating and are still married after 30 years of marriage.

Think about that next time someone tries to give you relationship advice, or tells you that you are doing something wrong in your relationship.
To me, I think you are one of two people that can really decided whether something you are doing is wrong or not.
