Stuck in the Talking Stage? Let's Unstick and Get Clarity

So, you're in that weird talking stage, huh? and now you're beginning to question if your calling is to be a customer service rep (lol). well been there done that and no way am i going back.

Don't worry, I've got your back! In this article, we'll spill the beans on how to navigate this gray area and find some much-needed clarity. Let's dive in! (the main trick is this work only if you want it to, from one talking stage queen to another)

1. Sis you gotta get real about Your Expectations:(you gotta tell yourself the hard truth)

Before diving headfirst into the talking stage, let's get real about what you want. Are you looking for a committed relationship or just keeping it casual? Being upfront about your expectations will save you from a lot of confusion later on.

2. Talk, Talk, Talk (But Not Too Much):

Communication is key, my friend! Be open and honest about how you feel, what you want, and where you see things going. But remember, don't overdo it and scare them away with your talking skills!

3. Take It Easy, No Need to Rush:

Slow and steady wins the race, right? Take your time to really get to know each other. Explore common interests, values, and goals. Building a strong foundation will set the stage for an amazing relationship.

4. Compatibility Check:

Are you two peas in a pod or more like oil and water? Take a good look at your compatibility. Do your values align? Are you on the same page when it comes to the future? Don't ignore those red flags, my friend!

5. Time to Get Clarity:

If you're stuck in the talking stage for too long, it's time to shake things up. Have an honest conversation about where you both see this going. If you're not on the same wavelength, it might be time to reassess and make a move that's right for you.

6. Embrace Self-Reflection like a boss:

Take some time to dig deep and reflect on what you really want in a relationship. It's like having a heart-to-heart with yourself, figuring out your desires, and owning them like a boss babe!

7. Don't Settle for Less, honey:

Listen up, queen! You deserve nothing but the best. If you're not feeling the love and respect you deserve during the talking stage, it's time to strut away and find someone who treats you like the fierce goddess you are.

8. Keep Your Options Open, like a dating pro:

You're a catch, babe! Don't be afraid to keep your options open and explore other connections while you're in the talking stage. It's like having a buffet of potential suitors and finding the one that makes your heart skip a beat.

9. Trust Your Gut, like a true intuition guru:

Your gut knows what's up, girl! If something feels off or you have doubts about the relationship, trust your inner intuition. It's like having a built-in relationship radar that guides you to make the right choices for your happiness.

10. Seek Support, because friends got your back:

When the talking stage gets confusing, reach out to your ride-or-die squad for some serious support and advice. They've got your back like no other and can offer fresh perspectives that will make your head spin (in a good way)!

11. Practice Patience, like a zen master:

Patience is the name of the game, babe! Building a solid foundation takes time, so enjoy the journey of getting to know someone. It's like savoring a delicious dessert - take your time and let the flavors unfold.

12. Take Care of Yourself, because self-love is key:

You're a superstar, so don't forget to prioritize self-care during the talking stage. Focus on your passions, hobbies, and goals. Taking care of yourself will make you shine brighter than a diamond and attract the right kind of attention.

13. Be Open to Change, like a chameleon:

Relationships are all about growth and evolution, babe. Be open to change and embrace the twists and turns that come your way. It's like being a chameleon, adapting to new situations and blossoming into the best version of yourself.

Conclusion:

Being stuck in the talking stage can be confusing, but fear not! By being real about your expectations, communicating like a champ (but not too much), taking your time, checking compatibility, and seeking that all-important clarity, you'll be on your way to relationship bliss. You got this!
