Commitment in Relationships

Commitment in a relationship is defined as the dedication to the relationship and a shared vision of the future, demonstrated through action and intention. It involves fostering connection and respect. Being committed to a relationship has benefits like generating a sense of higher purpose and fostering generosity and collaboration. Commitment can happen in different ways and at different stages of a relationship, and it is not limited to following societal expectations or milestones. Each couple has the ability to choose their own markers of commitment based on their unique relationship experience.
