1. What couples do when they get past the honeymoon stage
The initial days of any romantic relationship or marriage are perhaps the most passionate ones. And interestingly, it does not take long for the magic surrounding the honeymoon stage of a relationship to be over. And then begins the real days where the couple starts discovering new things about each other—both amusing and annoying ones. Because once the honeymoon stage is over, each partner starts growing comfortable in each other’s company and they end up doing things differently than what they did earlier. So, let’s look at a few amusing things couples do when they get past the honeymoon stage.
2. You make love less frequently
This is the first change most couples notice after the honeymoon phase is over—they have sex less frequently than they did before. It’s not due to lack of passion or love, it’s simply because they are getting back to the old routine, which might be leaving them with no time to get intimate frequently.
3. You will become more honest
Believe it or not, as the couples cross the honeymoon stage, they become more honest towards each other because they are no longer under the pressure to impress each other. Also, trust grows as time passes, which makes the partners comfortable with each other and they no longer pretend to be something they are not.
4. You would hardly text or send messages
Don’t be surprised to find your frequency of messaging decrease once you get over the honeymoon stage. When couples meet for the first time, they are like almost strangers. The urgency to know each other better makes them invest every free minute and energy to keep in touch, be it through messages or calls. So once the lovers or spouses spend considerable time together, they learn everything about each other and with this knowledge, the tendency to stay connected also decreases.
5. Borrow money without hesitation
Ah! This can be counted as one of the blessings that arrive in a couple’s life after they get over the honeymoon phase. Borrowing money from the partner or spouse becomes a less embarrassing thing. While a couple might not have been very comfortable talking openly about money when they first met but once they get to know each other better, they would no longer feel awkward discussing their financial matters. And when required, they would not think twice before borrowing money either.
6. You would hardly dress up for your partner
Looking good and wearing something special on a date play a big part in a couple’s life when they first start dating. But after the honeymoon phase is over, life returns to normal and the couples no longer feel the compulsion to dress up for each other like they did when they first met.
