What is a romantic relationship? It is the cornerstone of a strong and healthy marriage. It is based on friendship, mutual interests, and shared values. To maintain a deep connection with your friend and potential future spouse, it’s essential to remain faithful and prioritize each other above all else. It is also the time to get to know one another and their strengths, weaknesses, likes, and dislikes. Use this time to determine if marriage is what God calls you to do. Be patient, ask many questions, spend a lot of time together, and experience, at the very least, all 4 seasons, or even longer.

How To Know If Someone Is Right For You?
Married Man And Wife…
Keep in mind that the ONLY TIME SEX may be introduced in a romantic relationship is between a married man and wife. What brought you together in the first place and actively cultivating romance may require some extra effort at times, but it is well worth it in the end. Even as physical attraction fades over time, emotional and spiritual connections can deepen into something truly beautiful – rich with warmth, love, and commitment that will last through life’s ups and downs.
Make sure your friends and family get to know your significant other, and be sure to see each other in different situations to see how they react. Do things together, besides just having fun, going to movies, and out to eat. Really get to know your partner. ~ Bill Greguska

Honesty, Are You In A Romantic Relationship?
Romantic relationships, if not based on healthy love, tend to fade quickly.
What is your motivation in any relationship? Sometimes, romantic relationships happen prematurely during a dating relationship, similar to a marriage relationship, except for the sexual component. I have been in a couple of romantic relationships in my life, and I have also been married. The best advice is to take things slowly, because romantic relationships can be inspiring, especially when you know others have similar feelings towards you.
It is evident that the right romantic relationships are meant only after marriage; otherwise, many costly and unwanted problems can occur, not to mention it is against God’s will.
Treat the other person as a brother or sister because that is what they are. For example, kissing should be held off until a mutual commitment to marriage is at least discussed. This might be very difficult because of our natural drive for sexuality, plus how the media and the pressure can make things more difficult. ~ Bill Greguska

Feelings People Have In Romantic Relationships
Falling in love (infatuation) is, in other words, the beginning of love. It has no foundation for it. Passion springs up in the heart of the one who has it. It assumes a lot! So it helps to date the right person from the start. Falling in love (infatuation) is an overwhelming impression.
Be impressed, but wait cautiously, realizing that anyone can look and sound good for a year! It’s after a year that cracks may be seen. A skilled person can hide their authentic self for up to six years!! That’s why we must have discerning love when we think we might be falling in love.
Intelligent love is the mature love that has learned to wait and give the necessary time for God to reveal what is essential to know about their character and how they handled the wounds and disappointments of life, arguments, grudges, likes, dislikes, habits, etc.
Puppy love feels nice for a while, but it does no one any favors! It sets you up for some big disappointment that cannot last. That’s why I called it “weeds which spring up today, and tomorrow it’s gone” (today means a short time, like a month or so). I think that about sums things up. ~ Sister Sue Sauer
