It’s an important milestone when he turns to you for comfort, when he asks you for advice.
That means your relationship is getting serious.

Youve cleaned up your makeup and walked back outside, pretending you were perfectly fine.
It means you trust each other.
It means you arent worried about scaring him away anymore.
It means you know he is not leaving, no matter what.
And that is definitely a milestone.
You will try not to appear too clingy.
The moment you stop playing games is a milestone.
It means you are able to talk to him.
It means you are able to be honest with him.
Your clothes will only come off when its time to have sex.
But once you are comfortable, you will get changed in front of each other.
You will shower in front of each other.
You will cuddle naked without having italwayslead to sex.
This doesnt mean you stopped being attracted to each other.
It means you are able to appreciate each others bodies, even when sex is off the table.
You are going to stick to talking about the good stuff and will ignore the bad stuff.
But the longer you are together, the more sides of each other you will see.
That means your relationship is getting serious.
It means you are the person who makes him feel the most soothed.
You want to confirm everyone is behaving.
He might talk with your father in the garage while you are inside.
He might talk to your mother on the phone for her birthday.
He might text your cousins and add them on social media.
Its a milestone once he becomes an official part of your family.
The first time you host guests together.Theres a big difference between attending a party together andthrowinga party together.
Throwing a party takes work.
When you are both running around, hosting, you will see how well you work together.
You will see how well you handle problems.
You will see how well you get along.
You will probably wear thongs and Spanx.
You will probably send your best selfies instead of the first one you snapped.
It means you are okay with him seeing your low points, not just your high points.
This isincredibly importantif you want your relationship to last.
He needs to know everything about you, not just the good bits.
But once you are in a serious, long-term relationship, you will be considered a packaged deal.
Your friends wont have tomentionhe is invited because he isobviouslyinvited.
They would never dream of inviting you to a wedding or party without room for him.
But when you are super serious, you will even spend the less popular holidays together.
You will get drunk together on Saint Patricks Day.
You will color eggs on Easter.
You will watch the fireworks on Fourth of July.
You will buy a new mattress on Presidents Day.
It means you are proud of how far you have come as a team.
You have been through a lot together.
You have proven what a cute, strong, resilient couple looks like.
