In This Article:

You've been together for so long. It's great. And as the time spent in your relationship grows, you hit certain milestones where you know it's real. These can be make-or-break moments, or just little things where you finally realize that you're both doing it. Everybody hits these milestones, no matter how long it takes; they're inevitable.

You know you've made it when you hit these long-term relationship milestones.

So. Many. Inside. Jokes.

You can't help it--once you have spent that much time with somebody, you're bound to have jokes just between the two of you.

Selfie masters

You now have more photos together than you do apart. Your entire camera roll is photos of the two of you.

What's personal hygiene?

You've gone past the point of no return: no makeup, sweatpants, maybe your hair is unwashed? But it doesn't matter, because you're comfortable with your significant other.

Knowing what to order

You know exactly what to order them when they want food--and they'll do the same for you. You know their order like the back of your hand, and it's secondhand nature now when you pull into the drive-through.

Caring for hobbies

It begins when you start to genuinely care about their hobbies and favorite things. You're truly enjoying what they enjoy while you're with them.

Offend who?

You two know you're just joking around, but to others, you sound like you hate each other. It's just a weird way of showing affection, I promise.

Deep conversations

You know you're truly close with someone once you can have deep conversations without it being weird. Hitting these pretty much means there's no going back now.

Who pays?

One of you can't go on paying for the other for the rest of your lives (and, come on, it's 2016). Splitting bills or taking turns paying for dates or food is a good sign--everything is fair, and there's no feeling awkward about money.

Becoming a two-for-one package deal

If you're alone, people start asking where your S.O. is, and vice versa. You go everywhere together when you can--and there's nothing wrong with that.

Bodily functions

Being comfortable with another person means a lot of things: you can talk to them without fear of being judged, and you can also hear them fart around you.

You can be weird

There's no stopping you now--once the weird has been unleashed, there is absolutely no way to put it back.

Code words

Is what you're speaking even English anymore? Although, as long as the two of you know what a word means, does it even matter?

Now that it seems “talking” is the new way to date, and will stay that way until another idiotic term is used to describe the people who can’t settle down and just date someone, I feel as if it’s time to go over the unwritten rules of “talking.”

Rule 1. Having feeling without feeling.

What's up Asshat,

I've composed a list of things that I wish upon you, and they're harsh and cruel. These things are things that I wouldn't wish upon my worst of enemies, not even that Starbuck's barista who always screws up my order, not even him. You fall into a whole other category of hate. You surpass Starbucks barista. Congratulations, I'm actually a pretty nice person, making you worthy of every single bit of torture I wish upon you. What are these things I wish upon you you might ask?
