Every time you’re in a promising relationship, there will be friends and family members who’ll give you a set of
dating
conventions that you’ll be expected to follow!
But these stereotyped
laws aren’t necessarily the secret to a long and successful
relationship. Instead of blindly following these, play by your own
rules. We shortlist a few outdated concepts you should stay away from.
1.Joined at the hip:
It’s great to be in love with someone and spend time and do
activities with him. But it doesn’t mean that you have to behave like
conjoined twins! A lot of couples, especially those who’ve just started
going out, tend to ignore going out with their friends, as they are
always spending all their time with their new love interest. What’s
more, they tend to share everything between them! Don’t do that.
2.Playing hard to get:
How many times have you had a fight with your partner and then
ignored him for hours, just so he gets agitated and keeps trying to get
in touch with you? While you may think keeping him on the hook will get
him more interested, it doesn’t always work. You could lose him with
this attitude. It is one thing to be mysterious and another to be
egoistic and hard to get.
3.Hiding the past:
Everyone has a past — memories of ex-boyfriends, souvenirs,
photographs etc — the list is going to be endless. While you don’t have
to throw your past in your current partner’s face all the time, it does
mean that you have to pretend like it didn’t exist either. Talk it out
with your partner and discuss what is acceptable and what’s not when it
comes to discussing your respective pasts.
4.Don’t be the first one to say ‘I Love You’:
Many people, especially women mask their true feelings and believe
that a guy should make the first move, especially when it comes to
confessing about feelings! Just because stereotypes suggest that a girl
should wait for a guy to propose, it doesn’t mean that a girl can’t do
the same. If you really love him, don’t wait for him to reach the same
conclusion. Instead, be brave and tell him your feelings. He’ll be
pleasantly surprised!
