Relationship Milestones

Something I was thinking about....
There are always milestones in a relationship .... the first kiss, sex, weekends together...when would you give someone a key to your place? What does that say and would you eventually do that?

I would say it's a relatively unimportant milestone. I've given it out as a convenience thing before more than anything (tired of getting up to answer the door all the time).0

After the honeymoon. You know? The time when you dont have sex every night but you still can't wait to see each other...... :laugh:
I guess that's usually between 3 and 6 months? :bigsmile:0 -

:laugh: Jeez Kits, how far is the door and how often does the man knock on it in a day??? So much for an 'active' lifestyle!!

I've never gotten to the "own key to place" step.0

I think I'd give a key the day before I was planning to change the locks. It would give me motivation to get off my butt and follow through. Other than needing someone to water plants and pick up my mail when I'm out of town, I don't know why I would want someone to have access to my place when I wasn't there. Ideally the girl who meant enough for me to give a key would be with me on those trips.0

It takes a lot of trust for me to give up my key. I'd say definitely after the honeymoon, but how long exactly depends on the man and our relationship. I've only done it twice. Once was a man I thought I'd be marrying. We were at his house more than mine, so it made sense. I was able to get dinner started before he got home from work, he was able to come to my place to do yard work when I wasn't there. It worked. The second was a serious relationship, but not at that level yet. He gave me his key first so that I could check his mail while he was gone on a business trip. He told me to keep it after that and it just made sense to give him mine as well. We never really used them, except for the "let yourself in, I'm upstairs nekkid" nights.... 0

Hey now, if I'm in the middle of a raid on WoW I can't exactly pause that *kitten* to get the door! Haha! Plus waking up extra early in the morning to lock the door after they leave is a pain, I think we can agree on that! Hahaha!
But yeah, I have a strange sense of romance I guess. Sharing keys is practical not romantic for me. But I also don't like flowers or jewelry (unless it's a green lantern ring or sommat, haha).0 -

Totally agree.0 -

100% agree with this! That is definitely not something you can pause. And it only takes a matter of moments for you take enough damage to die.
So yeah...keys so your guild doesn't go ape-**** on you!0 -
Meh, my guy and I have been together for around 2 months now and I gave him a key this weekend. Not for romantic reasons but because I didn't like leaving the door unlocked when he came over after getting off work at midnight.0

Key only given when moved in...and not the basically there every day anyway moved in...the actual sit down and discussed that it's an official move in.0
