Who Makes it Official?
Remember in elementary school or the first year of middle school when a boy liked a girl he slipped her a note that said: Will you be my girlfriend? circle yes or no. Those were the good old days when simple things were indeed simple. I was wondering how this works in 2008.
Women in general are always more willing and ready to commit than men. Most of us seem to have a sense of urgency when it comes to relationships. There is nothing wrong with wanting to know if the guy you're interested in- is on the same page as you. In the beginning its important to discuss where each of you are in life to see if a serious long term relationship is even an option. You shouldn't start anything assuming you both want the same things.
After a couple months of dating and discussing dating expectations, you find that you and this guy have great potential to develop a wonderful long lasting relationship. He consistently compliments you, smiles at you, doesn't mind being a perfect gentlemen (especially in public). He enjoys your company and has mentioned he would like you to meet his family. The conversation at this point says that you're a couple however he hasn't said the actual words or slipped you a note so........ it's up to you. Make it official by telling him how you feel and that you know that he feels the same- and because you both feel the same, he is now your boyfriend:).
