I met this guy in class about 6 months ago, and we've been dating for about 4. Things are definitely progressing and I feel we're about to take it to the next level. Do you think I should just enjoy dating and what we have now before "complicating" things?
Do you guys think it's normal to take it to the next level after dating for 4 months?

It would help to know what you mean by the 'next level'! Do you mean intercourse? Move in together? Meet his parents?
Whatever you mean, just let it come naturally!

My husband and I both new by this time that we were going to get married. He asked me after six months and we got married a year and two weeks after we first met.We hve now been together nine years and married 8. When you know you know. Actually most marriage professionals say that the guy will know in the first year and that if he doesn't ask you to marry him definately by year two then it is time to move on. Good luck and I hope my input helps. By all means though don't move in with him till after the wedding...

I'm also curious to know what you meant by 'the next level'? Like Ryuson said, just let things happen naturally.
01/27/2012
I agree with Ryuson!
01/27/2012
A rule of thumb, if you have any doubts, don't do it.
01/27/2012
"The next level" is a very vague term that varies from person to person.

Makes sense to me - actually the question is too vague to give any good advice.

I've never had a successful relationship when things were taken THAT fast except with my current partner and that's by some crazy miracle! Lol. I think the best way to go is wait a couple more months just to be a little more sure. Do what you feel is best though. It's not up to anyone but you two.

If you feel comfortable go for it.

That is a really personal decision that only you and your partner can make. We can offer advice or annecdotal stories but we'd need more about what you consider to be the next step!

Move comfortably forward, don't force things and back off if it gets weird.

My love and I were together from almost day 1. It was almost 15 years when he passed away and I still love and miss him.

Nobody can really say what's right for you in your relationship. If something feels right (in this case, taking the "next step), then go for it. But only if it feels right. Nobody can judge when the timing is right for your relationship but you and your partner.

I don't know what you mean by the "next level." Sex? Moving in together (kinda early for that) Engagement? (really early for that) "Going steady?" Do people do that anymore?

I really want to know what YOU mean by "complicating" things and the next level. We have no idea where you are right now.

I dunno if I agree with those "Marriage professionals." When I was with my now husband a year, I was only 17 years old. Married at 18? No way!

It depends on the person. In fact, at our 2 year mark, we were involved in an Open Relationship and I was in college. I was in no way ready to get married for a while.

The answer is what feels right, NOT what anyone else thinks about it. Some people go years before getting crazy serious and some go a few weeks. It works if it's right, if it's not, better find out now!
03/16/2012
Move forward.

It's about what is right for you. Different relationships progress differently.
11/05/2012
you're not really clear on what you mean by the "next level"... Just do what you're comfortable with and don't worry about "normality" or "time limits".
11/05/2012
That's such a personal decision and is based on two unique individuals. Play it by what you feel in your heart.
11/05/2012
Hard to say without more information? Play it safe, don't rush
