TYPES AND STAGES OF RELATIONSHIP
Stage 1. Friendship:
Is a relationship of mutual affection between two or more people. Friendship is a stronger form of interpersonal bond than an association.

 A friend is the first person you want to call when you hear good news. A friend remembers that you don't like pickles on your sandwich. A friend will accompany you on the most boring of errands and make them seem fun.

"Dating is about finding out who you are and who others are."

"Dating is a battleground filled with deception and infidelity."

Stage 3. Courtship:

a period during which dating persons develop a clear understanding of each other  before getting married.

Know the Person You Want To Marry

By this rule we mean, know who you want to marry and only indulge in successful courtship with that person. If you are still thinking about a fling or do not want to give it a shot with a prospective groom or bride brought forward say no rather than quitting half way.

COURTING TIPS

The First Impression

Take care with this physical appearances and take care to not step on someone’s toes by saying something. This one can last a life time and you want to remember and cherish it together.

Voice Your Opinion

Who are you and how do you think? This is likely to happen when you talk but if you had initially taken care of not saying a few things, do show your personality or the other person may be confused at who are after marriage.

Do Not Hurry In To Intimacy

Everything has its time. Emotional as well as physically, it can take a while before you open up or want to be together. If you were to ask us a question, we would say emotional should come before physical but that may not always happen in the order.

Share

Important – Important, in talks, thoughts, things. Sharing and communicating is what forms the rock of your relationship. You don’t want to go a mile before erecting this one.

“To say that one waits a lifetime for his soulmate to come around is a paradox. People eventually get sick of waiting, take a chance on someone, and by the art of commitment become soulmates, which takes a lifetime to perfect.” 

― Criss Jami, Venus in Arms

Healthy Relationships

Think a Loud About the Future

We suggest this so that you can know what the things you both want are. Thinking out loud will tell you what you want and what the other person may not want. A courtship can give you both time to adjust and think over what you want together.

Take Up Any Lingering Issues

You may have talked, communicated how you feel, you are now solid with each other. Sometimes there are things that cannot be said at the very beginning and require trust to be formed. Rather than bring out any lingering issues after married, face the tough waters if you must tell each other something.

Give Each Other Space

The good thing about courtship is that you are not yet staying together. While physical space is necessary, make sure you give each other, mental and emotional space too. For a lot of couples today, living in before is an option. To make it work, giving each other space is necessary.

“Love doesn't make the world go 'round; love is what makes the ride worthwhile.” 

― Shannon L. Alder

Following from the stages you can see; every good relationship has a progressive method and rules the next one. But most people jump the process; which result to the issues we have today in many relationship, lack of patient and knowledge. Let us all stick to the stage of relationship; master it before getting to the next level. Don't practice the next level of relationship before getting there.

Note: I didn't talk about love as major as usual; love is important, but not good enough for a successful relationship; 'Understanding' and 'Communication' is key.
