Is it time to commit? 5 signs to shift from situationship to relationship

By

on

Finding a partner is a challenging task in today’s times.
Nowadays, people who like each other don’t make promises or be in a committed relationship, rather, they start dating casually and see how it goes.
Situationships can seem great in the beginning. They are fun and exciting.
But there comes a time when you start to wonder if you can be in a committed relationship and take it to the next level without being afraid.
Jumping from a situationship to a formal relationship can be scary to a few people.
It requires commitment, reassurance, true intentions, and self-awareness to have a meaningful and lasting relationship.
Signs you are ready to transition from a situationship to a committed relationship

1. You have a deeper connection or a bond

If you are in a situation where you feel that you and your partner share a deeper connection and a deeper bond, then it’s a sign that you are ready to transition from a situationship to a committed relationship. If you believe that your bond should be more than a causal fling and you want each other around and want to protect that bond, then you should take the bold step.


2. You see a future

It is not necessary that a situation has to remain casual and can not foster a meaningful relationship. If you see a future relationship with your partner, if you believe that you can grow in this relationship, then it’s a sign that you are ready to transition from a situationship to a committed relationship.

3. You want to be exclusive

When you are in a situation, you are always uncertain about your status and not sure if you want your partner to see other people at the same time. If you want to be exclusive with your partner, it’s a clear sign that you are ready to transition from a situation to a committed relationship.

4. Feel confident to put in effort

People who are usually in a situation do not wish to show effort to each other; they want to keep it casual and low-key. If you and your partner don’t hesitate to shower efforts on each other, then it’s a sign that you are ready to transition from a situation to a committed relationship.

5. Outgrown the casual phase

Many people either get into a situationship for their benefit and once they are bored of it they end it, but if you and your partner are in a situationship and have outgrown the casual phase, where you are ready for commitments and have true intentions towards each other, then it’s a sign that you are ready to commit to each other.
