1. At what point should people define the relationship? Does it differ? (Looking for amount of time, signs, etc)
I recommend defining your relationship between 3 and 12 months into it. One year is sufficient to tell whether this partner is fit to spend longer with them or not. Again, if your mind can regularly confirm this person is right, make the talk sooner.
2. Explain a couple ways they can have that conversation in a clear and comfortable way.
Know the point of expectation and bring on the talk. For instance, if both of you are free and sure that this partner will spend the night with you, table the conversation. Also, let the talk come when none of you is stressed. Tell them that you would like to have a serious conversation and inquire if that time is right. Suppose they are ready say, ” we have been dating for a few months, and I like spending time with you, and I would be glad to get committed officially. Can you be my partner? If they agree, start a more serious talk about what you want the relationship to be like.
3. How should you respond if the other person feels differently than you do? If there’s anything else you’d like to add, feel free!
If the person disagrees, they are not asking to be convinced to accept. Therefore, the best advice I would give is to move on. Please do not insist because persistence is scary and not romantic as you may think. A person who says they are not ready may require more time to know their stand. It is up to you to decide if they deserve the wait and the specific time. Remember, the situation may be stressful and make you appear vulnerable. But do not forget that the outcome is why you needed the talk. Loving and losing is better than never trying to love.

I am deeply convinced that each patient needs a unique, individual approach. Therefore, I use different psychotherapy methods in my work. During my studies, I discovered an in-depth interest in people as a whole and the belief in the inseparability of mind and body, and the importance of emotional health in physical health. In my spare time, I enjoy reading (a big fan of thrillers) and going on hikes.
