Love & Sex

Sharing Netflix passwords or meeting the parents: this is how long it takes in the average relationship

Look, in the game of love, there are few concrete rules. And that's a good thing.

Otherwise, it would get pretty boring and passion wouldn't stand a chance. If you still want to go on vacation with your cheating ex, go ahead. Do you check the Instagram account of that guy you barely dare to talk to in real life every day? Your choice. And do you prefer to sit on the bench with your love rather than hanging out at a bar with your girlfriends: no worries. We all just do what we want, and that's a good thing.

But in this crazy world, some numbers are obviously kept track of. And so we come to a number of funny averages, some of which we can hardly believe.

  • We prefer to meet the friend group after 2.5 months.
  • Not wearing makeup in front of your man we dare to do after about 2.9 months (OMG, how?).
  • We give up that subscription after 3.2 months. Hello couching, binge-watching series, and enthusiastically rolling around in bed. That's already enough muscle pain. gym Always a party: we meet the parents after 3.6 months.
  • After 3.8 months, we find that dieting and watching what we eat is enough. Hello cheese after dinner.
  • Men and women tend to leave the razor behind more often after 4.5 months. Hooray, let it go down under. You've already conquered it.
  • After 5 months, we tend to let a bit of air escape next to the other. As in: letting a fart (5 months? We say more like 5 decades, but okay. And we still pee with the door closed, yes, after 5 years, yuck).
  • On the other hand, we find it a bit harder to talk about our beloved: only after 6.2 months do we want to share our password (sneaky as we are. We protect our favorite shows with everything we have, it turns out).
  • We give away the access code to our phones after 7.2 months. Oh dear, no more secrets. That's nice. Netflix After about 18.4 months, it's the right time for many to move in together.
  • Look at that, after 22.7 months we finally get our finances in order. We then open a joint account. For the little shopping trips on Saturday afternoons, yes (that's how it goes after 22.7 months. Then you're fit on Saturdays instead of snoring in bed with a hangover).
  • After 23.4 months, we want a dog. Or a rabbit. Together. We're expanding our little family.
  • After 27.6 months, we get serious and buy our first house with our partner.
  • And yes, after about 30 months, it's time for babies.
  • Oh, you don't have to cling to this, of course. Because if you're a bit faster with some things or a bit slower with others; no one really cares. If you want to keep that Netflix password to yourself for 2.5 years, no stress. No one is checking your list 'WHO'S WATCHING?'. Or if you only show him after about 4 years that you weren't exactly born with pitch-black Bambi lashes – but that you have them purely thanks to your long-lasting infinity mascara that costs 35 euros each? Your choice. You make the rules yourself.
  • So. And now I'm going to stop with that good girl only-an-apple-for-breakfast diet with a clear conscience. I've been together with my husband for 39.5 months.

Look, in the game of love, there are few concrete rules. And that's a good thing. Otherwise, it would get pretty boring and passion...
