In my opinion the beginning stages of dating should be both easy and fun. If it is hard right off the bat, it's because something isn't working. Eventually you will get to hard points but they shouldn't be in the first few weeks.

I agree, but a lot of people don't realize that eventually you have to work with (not against!) your partner to get to the good stuff that comes with a relationship on a longer timeline. It's like everyone enjoys the honeymoon phase then tries to turn the plane around when its time to fly back from Hawaii.

Oh, it's true, and I can't say I'm not guilty. But your partner has to be worth the bad stuff, too, and sometimes you realize they aren't.

I may or may not be subject to this at the moment :( trying to show her I'm in it for the long haul too but she's not buying it.

A tough spot to be in. Best of luck.
