While in a relationship, you may have wondered if you were “at that level” with them, meaning you could do things like leave your toothbrush at your partner’s apartment or ask to have a bite of food off their plate. It may be a little tricky and even awkward at times, especially if you’re just getting to know each other and aren’t used to talking openly about the relationship.
Trying to guess what’s in the other person’s mind is a pretty tough task. But there’s no need to do that since Bright Side has you covered. We’ve found an interesting survey that reveals just how much time, on average, both men and women need to start doing different things in front of each other.
Meet your partner’s friends: 4 months
Start sharing food: 4 months
Go makeup-free in front of your partner: 5 months
Leave a toothbrush at your partner’s home: 6 months
Ask to share their streaming accounts: 9 months
Stop shaving: 12 months
Stop dressing to impress your partner: 12 months
Go through your partner’s phone: 12 months
Ask for a key to your partner’s home: 12 months
Put on weight: 15 months
Both men and women have quite similar time expectations about the first few couple milestones. Both genders need about 6 months before meeting each other’s families and 9 months before going on a vacation together.
But afterward, girls slow down. They need about 17 months to move in together (while men need 15 months), 22 months to get engaged (men need 19 months), and 2 years and 9 months to get married (while men are ready to get married after 2 years and 5 months in the relationship).
Men hate it most when their partner:
Women hate it most when their partner:
Do you agree with the survey? After how much time in a relationship do you introduce your partner to your friends?
