And I am butting my nose a bit here and tell my pov...
Lets talk about real life and forget about reel life for now.I have been in a relationship in college as a teenager (I was 19 yrs at that time) and now have been married to the same person. As the time progresses the intimacy only grows. So I can safely say that I am experienced in the matter of love and intimacy...😉
What is normal and who defines it? No one should, apart from the couple themselves. If they want to spend the initial few years or months of their relationship holding only hands and doing eye locks...entirely up to them. Or if they want to jump right into the physical relationship, again right up to them. Physical relationship will be always part of a romantic love, I am not saying that is the only thing there is to a relationship, but it is a big part... As long as one person is not forcing the other person (this becomes abuse), is it entirely up to their comfort level.
Now coming to the reel life a.k.a. tv serials... they are only catching up to the real life now... all these days it was a fantasy land.. 😆 Come on, even the married couple shy away from each other...how is that? and who makes love in the dark...😕 that's what they show in the other serials...
And TV serials some times glorify an abusive relationship as the most intense, romantic relationship ever! Now that is abnormal. That should never be shown. They don't kiss, but the guys abuses the girl and still call it "love"!
I would rather see a couple exploring the physical aspect of their love in a healthy way and also build their emotional intimacy along the way...
Okay...I said too much...😳
Love
