Feelings can be confusing.
Perhaps you’ve met just the right person who checks off all of your boxes, they make you happy, they’re sweet, kind, and overall a great person but the spark just isn’t there. Not everyone is for everyone and sometimes chemistry just isn’t there no matter how much you want it to be. What do you do when someone is by-the-book great for you but doesn’t give you those butterflies felt in the honeymoon phase? What if there is no honeymoon phase at all and you find yourself just going through the motions?
Dear Jean-Eva,
At which point did you know you wanted a relationship?Does it take time spent together, or did you know that this was the person for you within the first few weeks?I’ve been seeing someone for a month and I can’t figure out if I should let it progress naturally, or just call it quits now. She has so many qualities I’m looking for, which is why I can’t pinpoint why I’m not feeling more right now. I just curious if maybe I need to give it more time.
Most of the questions we receive can be solved by simply communicating, but this is a matter of communication with oneself. Not everyone has the social awareness to understand an unspoken bond, Jean-Eva goes into what to expect in a new relationship especially when feelings aren’t your forte:
