There are five processes or stages a relationship has to pass through progressively to avoid possible break-ups. If you have some time of courtship, you will see this stages defined. If your courtship is very short, you will see the same stages play themselves out in marriage. So these stages apply to singles and married couples. #1.

Moreover you will be doing yourself a lot of good when you marry somebody you are attracted to, so that your eyes can be on your spouse only! Discover the things you admire about your partner. This is the stage you are all over each other. God help you if you are writing an examination at this time! When you open your books to read, you see his/her face! This is the time you feel your partner is right and every other person is wrong. You need to be careful at this time, making sure your relationship with God is intact so that you can still hear Him speak to you. However, the relationship cannot thrive on attraction alone. It must move on to the next stage. What is the next stage?...keep in touch with us tomorrow.
