How Fast is too fast in moving forward in a relationship?
Like for instance: you start talking to someone every day and night, you Click, no doubts this is the ONE. you meet and decide you two can't be apart ever again. All within say 2 months.
What do you think?

Hmmmm, sounds like a familiar scenerio.....been there twice myself. When we reached the 4 month mark, it was over, at least for me.

if there is no doubt that the relationship is the one, go for it. at 16 i tended to listen to my little head but at 56 it isn't as talkative . so my big head gets to do a lot of thinking now. who knows, 6 months, maybe a year down the road she might start discussing marriage at all the family gatherings!

The time table is really never an issue, be it 1 month, 1 year....makes no difference. In reality, there is NEVER a guaranty, no matter how long.
Just my humble opinion

^^^She's right. There is no warranty. Even so, I personally do my best to move slowly. I know it feels like you have to hurry...but ya don't.

who knows, 6 months, maybe a year down the road she might start discussing marriage at all the family gatherings That's why i asked " How fast is too fast?" ie:"decide you two can't be apart ever again." as in marriage? yes
i say this, as i actaully have had this happen. Once within days, although it never came to fruition due to her circumtances, ie:abusive hubby
But actaully i am gratefull it didn't, or i wouldn't have met someone even more compatible. Like they say, everything happens for a reason!!

IMO time is not a factor. Think about it....love, fate, and destiny (if you believe in the latter 2) are really out of our control. Go with what your heart feels. Our minds may tell us to slow down, but take the risk. Live like there's no tomorrow!!!!

Live like there's no tomorrow!!!! Yes, one of my Favorite songs to-date. and since there are no warranties or guarranties it's the only way to live. An old friend of mine used this in her emails as a signiture for a bit, And it made no sense to me till almost 8 months later.
Don't regret that in which you have tried and failed..... but only that which you were too scared to even try.

Just do what feels right...my bro was married last April. They met over the net, moved in together within 3 months, lived together for 3 years, then finally decided to make it official. They still haven't had their first argument and have gone thru some tough times (getting old's not for sissies)...lost income, health problems, kid problems, all of them have made them come closer together...just the way it's supposed to be when you're right for each other....

take it as it comes, no guarantees in life. 2 months or 2 years...some of us have experienced this (fast that is) and yet here we are on a singles site..and others waited and carefully and cautiously proceeded yet here we are.
So have fun and live life!!!!!!!!

Like they say, everything happens for a reason!! I have to say I really disagree with that. I don't believe in destiny, predetermination, or fate. I think things happen for lots of reasons, chance being a big part of it. But I don't think we are destined as far as this will happen or that will happen no matter what. Nothing is meant to be, everything is a product of millions of different factors and they don't have a script to follow.
I wish you the best in your relationship. Time is always the best test I think for most things.

But I don't think we are destined as far as this will happen or that will happen no matter what. Nothing is meant to be, everything is a product of millions of different factors and they don't have a script to follow. See this is What i like about these forums. i know that some people don't believe in destiny and fate as with so many things in life, but it's what makes us all so unique. and finding that one that matches your beliefs such a joy to ride the wave of life in teh process. i know many people that feel this same way, but i choose not to. isn't America GREAT?
I wish you the best in your relationship. Time is always the best test I think for most things yes time is always what makes it all worth while to me too. Doug Thank you and i hope you have a great weekend.

I have a pretty decent record on relationships - never had any under a year blow outs. Even when I was a kid - there were no short run blow outs.
Every relationship was know (know it was happening to both sides) in under 1 hour of meeting each other.
Although I have not had a “new relationship” form since 1986 (still friends 20 years later) I fully expect my next relationship to be formed just as fast.
If someone feels they have to “get to know” someone - what they are really doing is - trying to talk themselves into *settling”
I personally have no interest in being settled for .............
I don’t intend to settle for anyone ......
The “figuring it out” part - will be very short or will not happen at all.
Two people know - and the know very quickly.

Not everyone "knows" if they could fall for someone early on. I thought I "knew" a few times and was wrong. Both people need to feel comfortable with the pace of a relationship. If you disagree on that then maybe you aren't suited for one another.

Well my ex helped chop down my Christmas tree and never left. Our marriage lasted for 22 years and was a very happy one for that time period and I have no regrets on that, so I think relationships can happen very suddenly. Sometimes you just know the person is right for you. He literally moved in with me that night, we lived together for one year and were married right afterwards. Sometimes it just happens that way, so good luck.
