Ok, so they say, in every relationship there's a honeymoon phase, where the couple are mad about each other and feel the need to spend every single waking moment together and can't keep their hands off each other. Then comes the normal.

Now apparently the honeymoon phase is the first 2-3 months. But as for me, I've been feeling the same for almost two years now o_O...

How long does it last for you guys? am I just weird? what comes after wards?

It's your relationship, you do whatever you want with it. Screw how others' choose to live their lives.

Lol, I've been apparently in that phase for the whole span of my current relationship. I guess it's because my S/O and I are both very "clingy" people, lol.. but I like being around him, he makes me happy smile.gif It's going to be one year on the 22nd, xD.

For my last relationship it was about 3 months and I'm kind of glad that those three months ended because I was seriously worried about how intense things were. Afterwards it's calmer, but it can still be quite fun.

Me and my boyfriend have been going out for about over one and a half years (almost 1 year 8 months) and we're still undeniably stuck in the honeymoon phase... I can't imagine falling out of that feeling any time soon, either. wub.gif

It never did. :D

We have our arguments, disagreements, but we're still head over heals, soppy, lovepuppies with eachother. We've been together for a year and a half almost. (and before that we were together for almost 2 years...)

Our honeymoon phase ended about 9 months into the relationship. We've been going out for about 2 years and a few months.

Our honeymoon phase ended when his allergy to my bird nearly killed him... so about 2 or weeks in.

We spend much more time together now (a year later) than we did in the beginning and we're much more physically affectionate now. Fun sexy time isn't as often now but it's because we're doing other things or we're tired or full of food.

Hmm, I would say our one ended at 6 months.
One day he goes, "so is our honeymoon phase over?" and I said "yup" and that was the end of that. lol
Not to mention that we're not AS clingy and stuff with each other as we used to be in the first 6 months =)

Hmm. I've been with my boyfriend for about 20 months and still going.
My "Puppy Love" phase were in the first 3-4 months of my relationship.
The "Honeymoon" came next, and it lasted for about 7 months.
Now, I think I'm in the "Comfortable" phase XD.

Mine lasted nearly 3 months. His whole dedication to the military has seriously dampered our affection towards one another.

I don't think what you described is the honeymoon phase.
The honeymoon phase to me is the first couple of months, where you just think they're perfect and you want to marry them even though you hardly know them, and you guys never fight about anything ever.
Then, normal things start happening -- like disagreements, and you actually start to think logically about marriage and whatnot. That's when the honeymoon phase ends. I still love my boyfriend just as much as when we started dating, no, way more, but we're definitely not still in what I would call the honeymoon phase.

Usually the honeymoon phase differs according to the kind of relationship you guys have. It lasts for a max of around 3 years, again depending, when you then start to see the person's flaws and stuff, and it's usually the determining factor at this point to stay together or break up.
I read an interesting article on the "itches" in relationships and how after that is the 7 years "itch" where it's uphil or downhil from there.

I must of missed that notice because there was no honeymoon phase for me and my other half. First couple of months were spent arguing. Mostly about politics/culture issues/education etc. Actually it's been over 2 years now and we still argue like mad. Most people call it 'sexual tension' laugh.gif. I just think we're a couple who happen to have a lot opinions and unfortunately for us it sometimes leads to us butting heads. But like everyone else who's commented thus far, we have our 'soppy moments'. Nothing too over-kill though. I'm far too old for puppy love moments. laugh.gif
When you're right, no one remembers. When you're wrong, no one forgets.

we never really went through the honeymoon phase i don't think. had to go through a lot of crap before we finally got together, so i think by the time we finally did, we immediately settled down into a serious relationship and never went through the sappy lovey dovey stuff.

Haven't been dating as long as most of you, butwe're still not over that. I think it's because we're somewhat far (two states ;_:) and we see one another twice a month or so.

I envy those who never experienced it ending. Or have kept the honeymoon phase going on for much longer for a few months.

I think you just start seeing them as a normal person. Not like the "most perfect person in the world ever", but someone with their good points, as well as having flaws, opinions you disagree with, etc. It's up to you, if after seeing them in this light, you want to continue building a relationship with them.
